This was my weekend project - PopStar - a new pattern from Quiltworx in Tula Pink. This fun quilt has lots of techniques including lone stars, veins, curved piecing and a new strip pieced border -all wrapped up in a 50” sq quilt. And - for the first time ever - I tried the diagonal seamed backing technique & it worked!
