Star In A Star


"The Star in a Star Sawtooth quilt block is a fairly easy block for a beginning quilter! It’s just a bit more putzy than some others. This is the fifth block in the Scrappy Stars Quilt Pattern series. In about an hour or so you can make this 8 ½” x 8 ½” block!!! You'll use the "Easy No Waste Flying Geese" method to create the four flying geese blocks for the outside star, and another method for creating flying geese for the little inside star!! "
