This makes an 8" block, and is paper pieced! Instructions follow for the block, and for the 48" square quilt! |
|
This is an original quilt pattern. Please abide by the Terms and Conditions of use! |
| The first thing that I would recommend that you do, is go to the Practice Paper Piecing Page. When you feel comfy with paper piecing, come on back and try this Christmas Quilt and/or just the Christmas Quilt Star Block! You will need to print out one copy of each of the templates per block you want to make on very lightweight paper. Use the triangle template to cut our fabric triangles for the center unit. |
|
|
After you have your units paper pieced join the center four patches as shown at left, right sides together, using a SCANT 1/4" seam allowance, and pressing the seams to one side... |
|
|
Using the triangle template provided, cut out four triangles per block you will be making, and sew them to each side of the center four patches...first to two opposing sides, pressing seams towards the center square... |
|
|
...and then to the remaining two sides, pressing seams towards the outer triangles... |
|
|
Now piece the block, using the paper pieced units, and the center unit we just completed. Make sixteen blocks for the quilt... |
