There was a tuturial on the board last year, no PP or templates. Since I always wanted to make the Hunter's Star quilt but didn't want to use templates or PP I was excited to try it. Attaching a picture of the quilt I made. You could play with the measurements until you got the size you wanted. Using her sizes my four sections joined measured a little over 9" square, pretty small for a Hunter's Star.

I am starting to think I am searching for something that does not exist. :?
Thanks. |
I've seen the Hunters Star made out of 1/2 sq. triangles.
Here's a tutorial. I'd think it's possible to adjust the measurements to end up the size you want. Just an idea. Good luck. |
Where's the tutorial?

If I remember correctly there was a show on HGTV (Alex Anderson and she had Jan Krentz on and she showed the how she did the star and it was not paper pieced. Gee wish I could remember better. Old age is here

Do not be put off by having the four sections, it is really easy and PP gives you very accurate points and the blocks are then so simple to sew together! Good luck
