Colorful Star Blocks Are Striking in a Quilt Project
A More Limited Palette is Eye-Catching Too!
Make a big impact with your next project by including these beautiful star blocks. Whether you choose a rainbow of colors or a more limited palette the blocks are sure to stand out.
Several block sizes give you many options. Plus you can choose whether to color in the large star or reverse the position of the background and colors.
These blocks are a great way to use scraps. Smaller-sized blocks will make striking pot holders and trivets or combine several blocks to make a mini quilt, pillow, wall hanging, table runner, or even a full-size quilt.
Paper piecing is used to construct the blocks and achieve precise results. You’ll find an excellent paper piecing tutorial by Ingrid Alteneder from Joe June and Mae here.
