The Summer Solstice star was designed using 3” strips for the strip piecing. It incorporates a paper pieced New York Beauty (NYB) block and the general assembly process was designed with no Y-Seams. It uses yardage very efficiently at just over 7 yards of fabric for the top.
NOTE: The original version of Summer Solstice is out of print and the new one references a different Quiltster Template and is not compatible with the old pattern. Unit Names and Fabric References have changed as these units can now be mixed and matched with many others in our pattern inventory and we needed to make everything consistent. You will need to purchase a new pattern if you want replacement papers for the old design as we don’t have any of the original papers left.
**TOP TIP** There are excellent tutorials (video and photographic) that Judy has done on YouTube, and on her website. I just love tutorials because they take the learning curve for making a new pattern to a much more manageable level. So, I recommend that you grab a cup of tea and a little break (I know your excited) and enjoy!
NOTE: This is for the pattern and newsprint foundations papers only. No Fabric, batting, quilt-back, embroidery floss or embellishments are included. Also, because of copyright laws, this item cannot be returned.

Shipping Cost and Package Tracking
It is important to understand that most items are now sent USPS Ground Advantage. US Postal Service Ground Advantage is replacing First Class Mail and Parcel Select Ground.

Can you send a pattern via PDF or download?
As much as we would like to offer this, none of our patterns are available via PDF as the designers of our patterns have retained the copyrights for their work. All of our patterns are physical patterns which will be shipped to you via USPS. If you are looking for a PDF pattern, we highly recommend reaching out to the pattern designer directly as they may have a PDF option available.
Fabric Instructions
Our fabrics come directly from the manufacturer and are not pre-washed. If you are new to working with pre-cut fabrics, the manufactures recommend that they not be washed until your whole project is complete. If you want/need to be able to pre-wash the fabric, we would recommend yardage for your project.
Are these fabrics COLORFAST?
No matter what type fabric you get, you cannot assume that anything is colorfast and will not run or bleed. This can be a nightmare when you have spent a lot of money for beautiful fabric, only to have your project or quilt ruined because of bleeding issues. In order to make many dark colors vibrant, manufacturers have to use a lot of dye. The more dye, the greater the propensity the fabric has to bleed. If you have questions about the colorfastness of a fabric, please test it first. You may have to pre-treat the fabric to better "set" the dye. Even then, it may not be enough and you may have to re-think your project and the fabrics you use. We will not be responsible for its colorfastness, nor will we replace your fabrics
FABRIC COLORS:
Please bear in mind that the photo shown may be slightly different from actual item in terms of color due to the lighting during photo shooting and/or your monitor’s display. We have made every effort to display, as accurately as possible, the colors of our items. However, as the actual colors you see will depend on your monitor and we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color will be accurate. If you have any doubt or questions, please ask prior to purchase to avoid any misunderstanding.
Do you ship outside of the United States?
We no longer offer shipping to countries outside of the United States except to Canada. Due to heavy shipping losses and extended ship times due to labor shortages, we can no longer justify or sustain shipping internationally.
