This pattern book is called "Simple Stars - Beautiful Quilts" And I want to make the king size quilt.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! :)
Most likely, you are going to make half-square triangles out of these strips, right? If that's the case, just cut to 8" instead, make the HST units, and then trim them. You'll get nicer looking units if you square them up anyway.
