In this lesson we combine all the techniques that were covered in the previous tutorials to make a Big Fancy Star block.
Accurate piecing with ¼ square triangles, the pin trick to align the seams and quilting techniques. We also further explore the QAYG with no sashing method, to join multiple blocks together with a horizontal seam.
This method is perfect for any patchwork quilt that you would like to make QAYG. You can work with separate blocks or join the blocks into rows, columns, or sections before quilting and joining them.
To start with, we make 4 quarter star blocks.
The 4 blocks are then quilted and joined with the no sashing method. As usual there is always lots to see in the fortnightly tutorial, you can check it out in the link below.
It's fun to see our Island Home mystery quilt taking shape!
