Our video demonstration this week is a six-pointed star, perfect for Hanukkah. This star is fairly easy to sew, although there are several bias edges to sew, so you’ll need to be careful not to stretch them, otherwise your block will be sorely mis-shapen.

If you head on over to www.QuiltBlockLibrary.com, you can get a free download of the pattern for this block, as well as several other quilt blocks.

You also might want to sign up for the email series – “Understanding Quilt Blocks.” This weekly email is an excellent resource for learning how quilt blocks are drawn, how to choose fabric for your quilt blocks, as well as how to sew
