St. Louis Star |
I found three different versions of antique St. Louis Star quilt patterns. Nancy's pattern is colored quite differently. I like the coloring of Ladies Art Co. pattern from 1897 and the newer version published in the Progressive Farmer better. Be sure to check them out.

I didn't find any quilts made from the St. Louis Star pattern but here's a drawing of Nancy's pattern which used thirty six 15" blocks-
The St. Louis Star block can also be found in Electric Quilt's Blockbase program as #3830.
