Judy and Brad Niemeyer designed the layout, instructions and foundation papers for the Diamond Wedding Star in 2017. The cover quilt was made from a collection of fabrics designed by Judy and Judel Niemeyer with Timeless Treasures. Two sewing technique referred to as foundation paper piecing and foundation strip piecing are used to assemble the units required to make this quilt. Traditional piecing techniques are used to join the units after the foundation piecing is completed.
ONLINE WORKSHOP! There are a lot of ways that you can learn to make this quilt if you would like extra assistance. We are excited to announce that a live online workshop is available for the quilt on the cover with Carie McGhie from Certified Shop, Stitches and Crumbs. The first class begins March 9th, 2024 but other classes will be available in the future. Click here for more details and contact Carie. Click here to sign up!
If you would like the pattern instructions that follow the rainbow layout, you should purchase the new pattern instead of the old one. However, the papers are the same and if you are comfortable adapting the instructions to the new colorway yourself, the old pattern will work.
