Fields of Aster

The Fields of Aster layout was designed by Brad and Judy Niemeyer from Quiltworx.com as part of the Queen Star Mixer series. It teaches a basic strip piecing process that is used with most of our star quilts, standard foundation paper piecing, curved paper piecing techniques, and curved assembly techniques. Several identically sized diamond blocks are used in a 91” x 91” layout that requires (48) diamonds, a background, and a border.

This pattern is a Collector’s Club Design, which means a limited number of patterns were published to celebrate the release of a Judy and Judel Niemeyer Tonga Batik Mini Collection that was used to make the quilt on the cover sheet. Generally, the number of patterns published is 500. Replacement papers are not available as these patterns are only published in limited numbers. When the patterns are sold out, they will not be re-printed. Get your copy today!
