Somebody, in a comment, ask about the pattern for the Noah's Star quilt. I can't find which comment it was, and you know my memory isn't going to tell me. The pattern is from the book Quilts for All Seasons, published by Oxmoor House and edited by me back in the early 90s. The book is now out of print, but I checked and Amazon.com has used copies listed for as little as 1 cent and new ones for $3.95. Click on the Amazon link to see for yourself. Hope this helps.
Here's another version I found on line of this quilt.
I settled on stitching my blocks with different colors of floss. I have five rainbow colors of floss: red, blue, orange, green, and purple. I will stitch one block in each star with each color, e.i, each block will have one red, one blue, one orange, one green, and on purple embroidered square.

The Noah Ark's quilts are simply adorable. I will definitely have to stop by Amazon. Thanks for sharing!

I have a grandson named Noah in Sweden and I made him a Noah's Ark quilt last year. I really like this one with the combination of piecing and embroidery.

I wish I was as talented as you. I do strip quilts but so far that's it..
Love your Noah's Ark

Cute quilts! You know the 3-triangle blocks that form the star points? They make the greatest border when placed side by side. Quick and easy to make, too.
Isn't it wonderful that different fabrics or different placement of lights, mediums, and darks makes quilts look completely different even if the pattern is the same?!
We have about 8" of snow in our part of Virginia, intermittent white out conditions, and it's still coming down. We're staying home and loving it!
Hope you're feeling better and better.
Hugs!
