Welcome to Day 5 of the Fabadashery Longarm Quilting Twelve Days of Christmas. Today I am featuring Verna's Eight-Pointed Star quilt.  Verna chose just red, white and blue for this striking quilt and it's simplicity required a quiet pattern.  On this occasion, I suggested 'Bird's Eye View' designed by Barbara Becker.  Why does this work?  It works because all the lines a soft, flowing lines and the spaces between are quite evenly spaced.  I think this has been one of my most popular patterns this year.  To add some extra interest, we used a variegated red, white and blue thread and you can just see the white popping up on the navy fabric.
