Triple Play: How to Make 3 NEW Spinning Star Quilts - Free Quilting Tutorial

Triple Play is a favorite tradition here at Missouri Star Quilt Company. Once a month, Jenny, Misty, and Natalie each demonstrate their own unique spin on a favorite block, technique, or template. In this episode, the talented Doan ladies show off three fabulous new quilts made with the Spinning Star quilt block in patriotic red, whites, and blues—just in time for the 4th of July!

Natalie's Spin Sisters quilt is made with precut 10 inch layer cake squares from Tonga Batiks - Valor by Timeless Treasures. It features two different "sister" blocks. They're not identical, but they sure do look alike!

Jenny's Spin Off jelly roll quilt boasts dazzling patchwork made with easy strip sets. Her fabric is Artisan Batiks - Liberty by Lunn Studios for Robert Kaufman.

Misty's Around the House table runner is made with just 10 layer cake squares, and each spinning star has teeny tiny courthouse steps block in the center.

Late to the fair, me. But what a beautiful and fascinating trio of projects! For each one, I kept thinking, "Wouldn't that make a gorgeous Christmas quilt!"

You ladies blow me away with every single Triple Play- My favorite of your video offerings every month. I WAIT for them and count the days. It’s extremely comforting to me to see you, a loving and blessed family, ( your are all three each younger than l am) being so close and to have become so happy and successful. Mine was loving and happy, blessed to be together. My quilting for them enriched our lives, especially mine. My children were both professionals. My son helped me choose fabrics and coordinate colors, threads, placements. My daughter encouraged me and helped pay for fabrics. He had the time, she worked herself into the ground. They both had extremely stressful, demanding jobs. As children, they could sew and mend, and l always hoped that someday, after they raised their children and retired, that they could dabble in stitches too, to create and to please themselves. They passed away two years apart. So l am a grandmother-mother, with a home to run for another girl and another boy- my daughter’s children are mine to love and raise. I sleep with my littlest grandson’s, my son’s little boy’s baby quilt, that l made for him as an infant. He would have been fifteen this summer, but he was only four. I love to remember them and when they were so little with the quilts and clothes l made them. It took me three years to get over the shock and punishing myself simply for still being alive, but am finallyl back to making my machines buzzz and whirrrr as often as l can manage to do so! My health, strength, pain level, physical durability, energy, alertness, and PATIENCE are not at all what they once were. But my heart and soul are. SO I, WANT TO THANK YOU THREE LADIES FOR BLESSING ME WITH YOUR MONTHLY TRIPLE PLAY. Thanks MSQC for being a part of my life.

Natalie is my favorite. She is precise and has a great teaching way.

Triple play is the winner this week. All three are great. I love all the different fabric lines and with such big blocks I can see a lot of table runners.

[rfinnie]

Natalie, you look fantastic! You give me encouragement!!

[RebeccaTreeseed]

I finally figured out what to do with my massive stack of teal leftovers. Then I found the perfect light fabric at MSQC. I am floating!

[suzzannenicholds]

Three beautiful quilts. Love watching you ladies. Doing triple play.

[karentzn]

Jenny your block design is my winner. They all beautiful designs. Thank you

[jeannemcmillintwinlakeses]

All three were wonderful. I really like Jennies way of trimming the blue and white squares so the last blue square is smaller than the other two. I like my perfect trimmer also but found on the project I bought it for (a bazillion churn dashes) that I needed to put the stitches just a hair below the line on the ruler to get the correct size. If not my squares were too small. And lastly! Gosh I wish everyone would package layer cakes folded. Either that or they need to make it a law that they manufacture has to provide a picture off all the fabrics on back when they seal them in a bag. I usually try to find a jelly roll of the same line to get a better idea of all the fabrics instead of messing up the layer cake in the store.

Oh my gosh, those little courthouse steps. So cute

[wingif]

3rd Friday can't ever get here soon enough. lol...I LOVE TRIPLE PLAY 🎉❤😊

[marlahanks]

Ok, they were all fun, but those little courthouse steps blocks are just darling 😘😘

[norahmcphee]

Good evening Ladies, Natalie's quilt looks like two entirely different blocks when they are all put together, even though i know that it is exactly the same block, my eyes see two different blocks, gorgeous Natalie. Jenny, your blocks i love how you have incorporated the navy and white blocks to make a criss cross in your quilt which looks like they go behind your star blocks. Another very different quilt and another beauty. Now Misty's runner to my eyes looks like it is her little family of five, her, Jake and the three children, but that's because i really should curtail the imagination that goes around in that empty head of mine. I love those tiny courthouse steps blocks, they just add that little intricate detail because they are so tiny. Thank you ladies for all your efforts that you make to share with us, i know i appreciate your insight and talent. Crafty hugs from Norah, Glenochil, Scotland
