For Week 4, we’re reaching into the vault and pulling out a previously Club-only design.<\/p>\n

The Western Star Pattern.<\/h3>\n

This pattern is special because its focal point is a five-pointed star, which is a little more rare in the quilted ornament world.<\/p>\n

We originally created this design for patriotic fabrics, but we wanted to show you just how gorgeous this pattern can be in holiday fabrics, too! (Scroll down!)<\/em><\/p>\n

Just like most of our patterns…\u00a0 you’ll get a step-by-step video tutorial AND a full-length eBook showing each step in detail, with photos.<\/h3>\n

Here’s mine. I was SO tickled with how this came out. (Tip: Pick your most solid or striking,<\/em> fabric for your center star to really make it pop.)<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"staci-ornament-girl-challenge-quilted-ornament-westerh-star-1\"\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n
