Bicentennial Star Crib quilt

Creator: Horn, Mary Kay

Location Made: Indianapolis, Indiana (IN) United States

Contruction: Applique, The white background is printed in light blue with the design to be appliqued as well as the quilting pattern. The official red, white and blue striped Bicentennial Star design is appliqued in the center of a white star with red and blue appliqued triangles defining the star shape. The quilt was very difficult because it was not designed by a quilter! The polyester/cotton fabrics fray badly, and the curved-pointed star had to be cut from tiny pieces of three different colors of this fabric and appliqued. The triangles giving the appearance of pieced blocks were also appliqued.
