Star Nine Patch Quilt – Simple and Timeless

This is an example of a listing I have had on Etsy. I mostly work directly with customers who have requests for colors, patterns and sizes that fit their needs. I especially love making quilts that use customer fabrics that are embedded with meaning. Visit my shop on Etsy to see the designs I offer, but feel free to connect with me for special requests. Prices are based on size and complexity.

Description

Handmade quilt, Nine-Patch Star pattern, in your choice of colors and size. Shown here in deep red and white in a small wall hanging size of 40×50, please visit my Etsy shop to see other color and size variations.

Made from 100% high quality cotton, this quilt can typically be made in 6-10 weeks, depending on current work load. Approximate time for completion will be provided upon initial inquiry. This is a very labor intensive quilt pattern, thus is priced accordingly.

This handmade quilt will add a splash of style to any sofa, bed, crib, or wall. Traditionally charming Stars and nine patch blocks are a favorite among quilt lovers. Any choice of color combinations and fabric styles can easily be incorporated into the design, to express your unique individual preferences.

The final quilt stitching design (stitches on quilt top holding the layers together) is free-motion and will be an all over design such as curvy or linear meander, swirls, or flowery loops for this quilt, but can also be a part of the customer-shop collaboration.

If you would like to purchase this quilt, or any other made to order quilt in my shop, you can purchase directly from this listing, or send a custom order request, and I will reply within a day to discuss your quilt.

Quilt orders are filled in the order that they are received.

Quilts make thoughtful and lasting gifts for any special occasion – think gifts for Christmas, birthday, christening, graduation, shower, housewarming, holiday, bereavement, wedding, or simply to let a special someone know you care.

All quilts are created by one person, in my non-smoking studio, never out-sourced, and ready to be enjoyed for years to come.

HOW ITS MADE

The top layer of the quilt is the main design element, fabrics carefully chosen, cut, and sewn together, piece by piece, on my Bernina machine. Creating the quilt top is typically the longest part of the process.

The middle layer is hidden, inside the top and bottom layer, and is a soft layer of batting made from premium 80/20 cotton/poly batting or 100% cotton.

The bottom or back layer of the quilt is made of only one fabric, which can be a solid or print that coordinates with the top.

All three layers are sandwiched together, then carefully quilted in an all over design pattern, for the quickest result. Customer can have input on quilting design if desired.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

All quilts can be machine washed in cold water, and machine dried. With each wash, the quilt will become softer.

Shipping is FREE in the U.S. mainland states.

Quilting began as a hobby for me in 2007, when my Mother (who was quite passionate about quilting, and creating in general), gave me a quick lesson on how to make a Christmas table runner. At that time, I was a high school science teacher, and with no background in art or textiles, I had much to learn. But, as is the story with many quilters, once you get started, it becomes quite the addiction. I retired early from teaching in 2008, and after making quilts for family members, babies of friends, and every bed in my house, I needed to pass some of these pieces on to others who could use them. Thus began my Etsy shop, Bluegrass Quilts, in 2015. I love designing with color, and working with customers to find the combination of colors and styles they love, then turning it into something they can keep for a lifetime.

Most of the quilts in my shop are offered as custom, commissioned pieces, made to order in various sizes and any color scheme imaginable. Customers typically browse through the many quilt listings in my shop, and order directly from the menu of choices in any size, ranging from crib size all the way to California King. Custom sizes are also available upon asking. Customer input can occur on various levels, from determining fabric preferences, sizing needs, and choosing quilt stitching design. All of these decisions are made by discussions that occur throughout the process, using email or Etsy’s messaging system in my shop. Time for completion varies, depending on my current workload. Estimated time of completion is provided upon request, or after ordering. Currently, the wait time is approximately 4-5 months. Email: bluegrassquilts @ gmail.com (remove the spaces)

The most fulfilling type of quilt to make is upcycling clothing from a loved one and turning it into a quilt. There is a two-fold benefit from these quilts – not only are we working toward sustainability, but the memories created from using a quilt made from articles belonging to one we love are priceless and precious. I recognize and appreciate this when I create these quilts.
