I suppose if you where very patient, it could be done. I would involve a lot of seam ripping, so I probably won’t do that! Have you tried Betsy Ross’ fold and cut technique for creating a five pointed star from one piece of fabric? I’ve tried it on paper, and I’ve been pretty happy with the results. I haven’t tried it yet on fabric.

I was hoping someone could tell me what size cuts of fabric to start with if I want a 15″ finished quilt block. If 10″ starting pieces end up 7.5″, I dont know if the inches “lost” would be consistent or variable. Theoretically, I’d need to start with fabric anywhere from 22.5″ to 30″.

Has anyone tried making a bigger block? How did your numbers work?

I completely understand how to do this, thanks to your tute. Thank you! I find that I really want my star to be one color (scrappy) with a different colored background. Unfortunately, I can’t think of a combination of fabrics to use this way in which the stars don’t get sort of “lost.”

A+++ for excellent in tutorial writing though!
