The LeMoyne Star (also known as Eight Pointed Star) is a well-loved, favorite pattern of American quilters.  It made its appearance very early in the nineteenth century and is named for two French Canadian brothers.

It is said that the LeMoyne brothers founded New Orleans around 1699.  This quilt design was found on their family crest.

Our LeMoyne Star quilt jewelry measures 1/2" square and has red enamel defining the pattern. The earrings come with secure, comfortable sterling silver leverbacks.  An 18" sterling silver chain is included with the necklace.  A perfect quilter's gift!
