This quilt has been called stack and whack, pinwheel, turning star and flying kite. No matter what it’s called, I think it’s one of the coolest quilt patterns ever.

When I made mine, I made it with similar colors that she uses in her tutorial, with a white background and I trimmed it with a red border and it is my absolute favorite quilt of all the quilts I’ve made by far.

The Stack & Whack method involves taking rectangular pieces of fabric that have nearly identical motif prints to make the Stack then Whack (cutting) pieces from this Stack and arranging them to create a kaleidoscope effect.

Don’t you love using up those scraps? If you’re anything like me, I wouldn’t dare throw away those precious scraps…there’s too many opportunities to use them!

So go ahead and check out the following tutorial from Deb, with the Missouri Star Quilt Company.

Get to work and when you are done, be sure to let us know how it went and even better, send us some photos so we can see your beautiful masterpieces!

Watch how Deb makes this stunning quilt in her step by step tutorial.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
