Countdown to Christmas

Lets get started.

- - - - - - - - - - 

First you will need to make 24 - 2" stars. Use this tutorial to

make one each day for 24 days. That will put us 1 month

from Christmas Eve. Yikes! Along the way I will give you additional

information for different parts of the quilt, that way we can have

this project all wrapped up in time for Christmas.

 You will need to cut 24 sets like this.

1 light 2-1/4" square

4 light 1" squares

1 dark 1-1/2" square

4 dark 1-3/8" squares

Draw Diagonal lines on the wrong side of 4 dark 1-3/8" squares

Place 2 dark squares on light 2-1/4" square.

Sew 1/4" on each side of line.

Cut on line, press points out.

Place a dark square on each unit and sew 1/4" on each side of line.

Cut on line, press points out. Trim little tails off.

Layout and piece together 2" star - repeat to make 24 stars.
