Pinecone Star Quilt Pattern

by the.weekendquilter November 30, 2022

Take a bird’s eye view of a pinecone, break down the tiers and you get the design of the Pinecone Star Quilt. The timeless design adds that extra touch of warmth to the room all year-round. The intricate tiers of each pinecone is achieved with foundation paper piecing (FPP).

For more information on how to FPP, there is a tutorial on my blog and for more visual support, check out Angela Walter's paper piecing tutorial on YouTube.
