This makes a 9" block, and is paper pieced! Fat Quarters will be ample! |
|
Please abide by the Terms and Conditions of use! :o) |
| 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 a St. Louis Star! You will need four copies of the corner square, four copies of the A and A-Rev units and one copy of each of the B units per block you want to make printed on very lightweight paper. |
|
|
After you have paper pieced all the units, join A and A-Rev units along the center seam, using as always a 1/4" seam allowance. Press allowance to one side. Make four units like this... |
|
|
Then sew the B and B-Rev units together, pressing seam to one side... |
|
|
Now just piece the block as shown at left! Alternate pressing directions by row, so that seams will be staggered and lay flat! |
