Evening Star Cross Stitch Pattern | Civil War Quilt Block, Americana Embroidery (PDF Download)

"The Evening Star takes the classic Ohio Star and adds pieced corners, turning four points into a full eight — a favourite among reproduction quilters recreating 1860s sampler quilts. Worked here in delft blue, salmon and cream across a 6"" hoop, it has real presence without losing that quick-make charm.
