This makes a 12" block, and is paper pieced! |
|
| 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 the Eight Pointed Star Variation 2 Block! You will need to print out four copies of each of the two units needed per block you want to make on very lightweight paper. Fat Quarters will be plenty! |
|
|
When you are done paper piecing the eight units...join them as quadrants, and then join the four quadrants as a block, as shown at left...using as always those SCANT 1/4" seams! Alternate pressing directions with each addition... |

Here's another four by five quilt, with a pieced border, quarter squares in the four corners, and a thin binding...Reminds me of the fourth of July! Happy Quilting People! Marcia :o) |
