Katie Compass Star Quilt
A “Katie Compass Star Quilt” is a type of quilt or blanket made with a beautiful star-shaped pattern that resembles a compass. It may seem complicated, but we will explain in a simple way how to make this beautiful piece.
Necessary materials:
Colored fabrics of your choice
Sewing machine or needle and thread
Ruler and fabric cutter (or scissors)
Cutting mat (if using fabric cutter)
Clothes iron
Step by step:
Choosing fabrics: Start by selecting the fabrics you want to use for your quilt. It’s good to choose fabrics of different colors and prints to create an interesting look.
Cutting the fabrics: Now cut the fabrics into strips of uniform width (eg 2.5 cm) using the ruler and fabric cutter. You will need fabric strips of different colors.
Sewing the strips: Take two strips of fabric in different colors and join them at the end, with the right sides of the fabrics facing each other. Sew along the edge of the strip using a sewing machine or sew by hand with a needle and thread. Do this with all combinations of strips of different colors.
Press the seams: After sewing the strips, flatten the seams with an iron so that they are very smooth.
Cutting the Joined Strips: Now, cut the strips you just joined into smaller pieces. The width of these pieces will determine the final size of the star. For example, if you cut pieces that are 12.5 cm wide, your star will be that size.
Star assembly: Take the cut pieces and arrange them in a star shape on a flat surface. Make sure the colors blend together harmoniously. Play around with the arrangements until you are satisfied with the result.
Star sewing: With the pieces arranged in the shape of the star, I sew them together next to each other, again with the right sides of the fabrics facing each other. Sew the edges of the pieces together.
Press again: After star stitching, press all seams together so the piece is flat and the seams are even.
Finishing: Now that you have the star finished, you can either quilt it (sew the top fabric, batting, and bottom fabric together) or add a backing fabric to make a complete quilt.
And ready! With these simple steps, you’ve created a beautiful “Katie Compass Star Quilt” to decorate your home or gift to someone special. Unleash your creativity in choosing fabric colors and patterns, and the result will be unique and charming. Have fun sewing!
