How to Make a Strip Pieced Lone Star Block
Here’s a unique idea for making a lone star quilt block. It comes from Coriander Quilts. It is also a great way to use up some scraps.
The tutorial has detailed step-by-step instructions plus plenty of photos to help you out. I love that the background sections are pieced so that there are no Y seams. I have to tell you now that I really don’t like Y seams.
This block can easily be done quickly and the results are stunning. Look closely at this design and you can see the white strip running around the center. That adds a fun touch!
If you are looking for a fun and unique scrap busting quilt block give this one a try. You can find it here: String Star Tutorial
