Laura from Vacaville used the block from the Perfect Points workshop, made more and combined it with another block from the 300 Paper-Pieced Quilt Blocks book and one of the pieced borders in the Borders Set Two to make this stunning quilt! Gotta love all those perfect points! This is what I call taking an idea and running with it.

This Did Not Make A Dent in My Scraps!

How fun is that title? Vicki Guerra of the Rio Grande Valley Quilt Guild in Texas made this labor of love using all the blocks in the 300 Paper-Pieced Quilt Block books. Vicki worked with her friend Susan as they each made their quilt. I had the pleasure of meeting both Vicki and Susan when I was at their guild teaching.

Vermont Star Beauty

Vermont Star Beauty

This beauty was made by Joan Ballard Midland, MI Joan wrote in her email: "Carol, I love the Vermont Star and the wonderful lattice work you get when you combine several stars. I have also always wanted to do a more traditional Amish solid color quilt. So I combined the two and added a ribbon border and created my own paper pieced outside lattice from the Vermont Star but omitted the star. This was the final product! I hope you like it." I not only like it...I love it.
