Questions?

This photo has nothing to do with this post just

looking for a picture to make it interesting. I

think this one fits the bill. This is Kimberly my

youngest daughter. She graduated from high

 school this year and will be heading to

 Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in the fall.

We are so proud of her.

Let's All Sew Together

Welcome to our Summer Star Sew Along

Join us each Friday in July and August to

create a cute little summer star quilt.

- - - - - - - - - - - - -

First I am going to give you the basic instructions

for cutting and pieceing the star points. You will

need to use these instructions each Friday to construct

 this portion of your star block. Let's get started.

If you are using one of our kits

fabrics pictured are for demonstration only.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Cut the following:

Four 1-1/2" squares from fabric A

One 3-1/4" square from fabric A - cut twice diagonally

Four 1-7/8" squares from fabric B cut once diagonally

Using the photo above construct four flying

geese to make the eight points of your star.

 Layout will be as shown above.

Center of star will be

different each week and will fit

 right in the middle.
