Ribbon and Stars Quilt
Janet McLaughlin last saw her Ribbon and Stars Quilt at a store in Long Beach, New York around 1992. When the store closed, the owner took the entire contents of the store.
The quilt, approximately 50" by 50", was made from a commercial pattern. Janet used dark blues, light pinks and light greens. The white border has a ribbon made of dark blue with light pink accenting the curvature of the ribbons. The center of the quilt has eight Ohio Star blocks: three in dark shades of blue, three in lighter shades of green (maybe one more in blue), and two in pink. The stars are made with a 2" to 3" center block with eight half triangles around it. It is machine pieced and machine quilted and has a label which says, "Especially Made By Janet McLaughlin." The label was hand appliqued on.
Janet writes, "Any help locating this is appreciated." Please contact Janet at [email protected].
