Midnight Stars

Here's a quilt pieced by Nancy R.  It is all paper-pieced.  She didn't want anything to distract from the stars, so we chose matching thread in the blue sashing and border areas.

I don't know the name of this pattern, but it was paper-pieced by Lori S.

I used mostly matching thread colors.

Those points are perfect! The little squares were cut individually and put on a grid interfacing - no strip piecing.
