Descripción
A magnificent radiating star — and one of the great showpieces of American quilting.
The Star of Bethlehem is closely related to the Lone Star: diamonds stream from the centre to form a huge, many-pointed star that can fill a whole quilt. It was a favourite for special quilts where the maker wanted drama and precision on full display.
Antique examples survive in museums and private collections, often as centrepiece medallions surrounded by borders.
🌟 Did You Know?
The same diamond-star drafting travelled under more than one name — Lone Star, Star of Bethlehem, Mathematical Star — depending on community and catalogue. Whatever the title, the skill is the same: accurate points and patient piecing.
🧵 A Little Heritage
A fitting finale for Volume 6: a star with history written in every diamond.
We've captured this design as Volume 6, Stamp 7, giving you another little piece of quilt history to add to your Heritage Quilt Society collection.
