But this was made wth 5" squares...2 of each of 3 different colors. Then they are sewn into 3 squares.....each of the 6 squares sewn RST to one of the other colors....giving you the 3 squares. They are each then cut on the diagonal each way and then sewn together. It is then finished with 4 corner squares.
I'm sorry if this sounds confusing but I don't know how else to explain it....but it was such a simple block to make. |
Marcia Hohn at Quilterscache calls it "Starflower". Easy block and looks so good.
