Today is the very last block in our little quilt along!
It is called “variable star” and is just like the first block...
Except for the color choices.
🙂
You will need (from top left ...counter clockwise)
One (1) 3 1/2” square - medium pink
Four (4) 3 1/2” squares - background
One (1) 4 3/4” square - background
One (1) 4 3/4” square - medium pink
Two (2) 4 3/4” squares - dark pink
Take all four larger squares (4 3/4”)
Stack right side up.
Cut twice diagonally.
Each set of triangles makes ONE hourglass block.
Sew four hourglass blocks together.
Trim to 3 1/2” x 3 1/2”
Arrange them into this beautiful star block!
Make TWO.
If you’ve been following along you will have 20 star blocks.
We’ll be adding sashing next.

ReplyDeleteAnother fabulous block , Beth. I am so grateful that you have shared this block with all of the measurements and steps. You are amazing. Happy quilting.
ReplyDeleteSew pretty, looking forward to how you set them.
ReplyDeleteHi Beth, I have enjoyed creating the pink stars quilt with you this summer. I actually made two quilts. With being introduced to one quilt block a week I decided to use two different color combinations. Green and Yellow and Blue and yellow with a little extra color now and again. All fabric used is from my stash, nothing new was purchased. I will be quilting them this next week. Thank you for making this easy and fun to complete. I was hoping to attach pictures of the pieced tops but not sure how to accomplish this. I really loved making each block. It is not perfect but it is completed. Thank you
