Star quilts and high-contrast color schemes of red and white, blue and white, and red, white and blue are enduring favorites for good reason. Stars are striking in their spikey silhouettes, comforting in their symmetry, and imbued with meaningful symbolism. The colors are bold, graphic, and timeless, yet the straightforward color schemes are easily mastered by a beginning quilt maker.

The quilts look equally stunning in all-over scraps or 2 solid fabrics. Pairing classic Evening Stars and Rising Stars with these color schemes makes perfect sense: Both the color plans and the geometric forms contribute to the simple beauty. These are basic stars, familiar to all, made from common shapes. Still, set in fresh arrangements with curved illusions, refreshing asymmetry, or unique combinations of several types and sizes of blocks, these stars sparkle anew.
