That framed star, with the postal code-print center and brown star points, pops so clearly that it may take you a moment to realize it\u2019s not the actual quilt block!<\/p>\n<p>The border is also fun. Piano key borders can be tricky to design correctly. A designer needs to ensure that the math works out to create an even distribution of colors. In addition to that, the designer needs to calculate correctly so that the rows fit the center without any of the keyboard rectangles getting cut off. (Nice work, Pam!)<\/p>\n<p>The fabrics really make this quilt. The sepia-toned or tea-washed color palette\u2014maybe the term is \u201cantiqued\u201d\u2014is spot on for the Pony Express prints, with the postal codes and suggestion of leather. If you know an American history buff, this is a quilt for him or her, no doubt.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, even though the fabric line is antiqued, the reds and blues are vivid. They seem to glow, and bring out the American-flag feel of the piano-key border, and let the stars shine.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>Pattern Details<\/h1>\n<p><strong>Quilt by:<\/strong>\u00a0Pam Boswell<br \/>\n<strong>Skill Level:<\/strong>\u00a0Intermediate<br \/>\n<strong>Finished Size:<\/strong> 58\u2033 x 58\u201d\u00a0 throw<br \/>\n<strong>Finished Blocks:<\/strong>\u00a016 (10\u201d) Blocks<br \/>\n<strong>Fabrics:<\/strong>\u00a0Fabrics in the quilt shown are from the Pony Express collection by Deborah Edwards for Northcott.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Red box 41<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ride West\u00a0 from Love of Quilting July\/August 2018, has several interesting design elements, in addition to the amazing fabrics.\u00a0 Intermediate skill level.
