Sampler Sew-A-Long Block #8



Fabric requirements:  1 dark, 1 medium to med. dk, and 1 light
Cutting instructions:  
From the dark fabric cut one, 1 1/2" x 12" strip, cut two 3 7/8" squares

From the medium fabric cut one 2 1/2"x 12" strip, cut two 3 7/8" squares

From the light fabric cut one 2 1/2" square and four 1 1/2" squares.



Sew the two strips together and press to the dark side. Cut this strip into four 2 1/2" segments. Make four HST's from the dark and med. squares.


From the 2 1/2" strip segments sew a 1 1/2" square diagonally to each side of the medium fabric.  Cut away excess fabric and press before sewing the other square on.  These will become your center star points.  Arrange your units as shown below and stitch rows together.
