Change Colors and Values to Give This Star Many Looks
| August 5, 2024 | Paper Piecing, Quilt Blocks
4 Block Sizes Provide Many Design Options!
This striking star block is simple to make and provides several design options. It can be given many looks depending on how you arrange colors and values.
Plus, with four sizes to choose from it can be used in many types of projects. The largest size will be beautiful as a throw pillow cover or finished into a table or wall quilt.
The block is constructed using foundation paper piecing. This is a great project to start with if you haven’t given that a try yet. You’ll find excellent instructions for foundation paper piecing here.
Designer Ingrid Alteneder from Joe June and Mae provides instructions for the following four block sizes:
- 8” x 8” (8 ½“ x 8 ½“ unfinished)
- 10” x 10” (10 ½“ x 10 ½“ unfinished)
- 12“ x 12“ (12 ½“ x 12 ½“ unfinished)
- 16” x 16” (16 ½“ x 16 ½“ unfinished)
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources.
