Piece the two "star corners" by following the diagram at left, and using all SCANT 1/4" seams. Alternate pressing directions with each addition to keep your seams from being bulky and difficult to quilt through! |

Next sew a Color 2 half square triangle to the right side of a half square, using the same SCANT 1/4" seam. press seam allowance towards the half square. Add another Color 2 half square triangle to the lower edge of the half square, this time pressing seam allowance towards the triangle. Make seven more units like this... |
|
|
Sew each of the units you just made to the slant side of a Color 1 octagon, right sides together and all edges aligned. Press the seam allowances towards the center octagon... |

|
Now piece the block by joining the star and octagon units as shown at left. Alternate pressing directions with each addition! ...and there you have it! :o) |
