Q: How do I use the freezer paper patterns that come with some CDs/DVDs?
A: The freezer paper patterns are meant to be used in several ways. You can use them with a light table to mark your practice piece or quilt top, or with any other marking technique you prefer. They can also be used as inspiration and/or as a guide as you quilt. Whether you mark with them or use them as reference, they are meant to support and help you with your quilting.
Q: The rubber on my Quilt Halo cracked, can I exchange it?
A: As long as it is a defect from manufacturing, we will exchange it. We have seen Quilt Halos where the crack is a direct result of use and occurs when the quilter bumps the Halo with the screw of the machine's foot. In these cases, we cannot accept a return. Please remember to pause your quilting when the Halo gets close to the foot, and move the Halo.
Q: How do I use Sharon's Applique Foundation?
A: Following Sharon's instructions in her Piece-by-Piece: Machine Applique book, or in one of her patterns will give you the best and most detailed instructions. For basic instructions see our Applique Info area.
Q: Can I use Sharon’s quilt designs on my own quilt or a customer’s quilt?
A: Yes, but... If you will be competing your quilt, in local and state competitions, please give credit to Sharon for the pattern and designs. As well, please give credit to Sharon for any designs used on a customer’s quilt. Sharon’s designs are copyrighted. If you, or your customer, intend to compete a quilt, that include any of Sharon's designs, in a regional, national or international quilt show, you must seek permission directly from Sharon Schamber.

The Brimfield Star EPP block is a cousin to the famous Brimfield Block. This English Paper Piecing pattern uses the same pieces as Brimfield Block except for the “tall house”. Take a look at the negative spaces between the original Brimfield Block and the star version. The difference between the two is that the negative space of Brimfield Block looks like a cog on a wheel. When you remove the tall house pieces (the piece connecting the orange peel sections), there is extra free space to fit one more orange peel section. The 5th orange peel section makes the center of the block look like a star!
If you love Brimfield STAR but think you might want to make the original Brimfield Block one day, we suggest buying the original Brimfield Block window acrylics. These acrylics work for both blocks.
NOTE: The English Paper Pieces and Templates are NOT Included with the pattern.
English Paper Piecing uses paper templates onto which fabric is wrapped to create shapes that are sewn together by hand. The Brimfield Block EPP design is appliquéd onto a square of fabric to make a 14″ finished block. A Brimfield Block Quilt is composed of 12 blocks. The finished quilt size measures 61″ x 47″. The pattern includes 10 instructional pages and a coloring sheet.
The Brimfield Star Block Complete Paper Piece Pack contains all of the Paper Pieces to make the Brimfield Star Block Quilt by Kim Martucci and Nisha Bouri of Brimfield Awakening. Easy to tear specialty perforated Paper Pieces allow the blocks to be customized. Includes enough to make 12 blocks.
