Twice As Nice

Two sizes of stars give this quilt a lot of sparkle! You will need 1/2 yard or 5/8 yard each of 20 assorted prints selected from 3 or 4 color families, depending on which size you make. Try to keep these fairly close in value. You'll also need 1-1/4 or 1-7/8 yard each of two background fabrics with a slight difference in value—the lighter one will be used in the star blocks and the slightly darker one in the checkerboard. It should be noticeable that these are two different prints. Optional instructions are also included for cutting from your stash.  Two sizes 72 X 90 or 90 X 108.
