Machine-Quilting Details
Using two layers of batting to accentuate the quilting, Pam Cole machine-quilted an eight-ray star pattern in each block center. She added rounded zigzags in the cream print pieces and stitched in the ditch around the curved edges. She stitched arcs in the corner and setting triangles to mimic curves in the blocks. In the corner and setting triangles and the border Pam stitched parallel rays of varying lengths.
