"When I go to a certain project, I am told that an e-mall has been sent. But no e-mails ever arrive. And yes, I checked my Spam and Trash files. I also receive Malware notices for Sugar Spun Quilts. Your website is too difficult. Unable to use."

"There are so many ads on this page that I can't download this ebook. Chrome keeps on waiting for the ads to show up on the page and then my download request, in the lower left corner of my Chrome window disappears and messages about waiting for ad windows keep popping up. Very disappointing!"

Variable Star Quilt Block

"Learn how to sew a Variable Star Quilt Block during week 7 of our Spring Block of the Week! Last week we learned about the Friendship Star Quilt Block. This Variable Star is also an easy star block and is perfect for a beginning quilter!! Also learn a technique for making a square tulip block within the directions for this week’s block!! This Variable Star Quilt Block uses squares and tulip squares to form the star. There are a lot of different star quilt blocks. Some are very intricate, but this is one of the easy stars to sew. The finished block will measure 12 ½” x 12 ½” square. "
