Kaleidoscope Quilt Pattern by Judy Niemeyer

Kaleidoscope Quilt Pattern by Judy Niemeyer

The Kaleidoscope Quilt was designed by Judy and Brad Niemeyer to show the possibilities of mixing and matching our 22″ diamonds to create an exploded star quilt layout. The project requires (24) diamond blocks. We chose the Basket Star and Woven star for this design. We are also introducing a paper pieced background block in this layout. The quilt requires paper piecing and traditional piecing skills, including curved piecing, to complete.
