I'm looking for a 10" pattern that looks like Ohio Star On Point.......
I am looking for an Ohio Star On Point and am trying to avoid bias edges. I've found a 12-inch "Pieced Star" using flying geese on the edges that when turned on point is the Ohio Star, but I really need a 10" size. I don't have a clue (or the software) to alter the 12".....Anybody out there have an easy solution? If there is one, I know it will come from here. Thanks in advance!

An Ohio star is a 9 patch block. Maybe this will help.
Edit:OOps. You need a special ruler for that, maybe someone with EQ can help you. http://www.multi-patch.com/html/ohio_star_pattern.html |
Thanks Dakotamaid for your attempt.....interesting site, but pretty overwhelming to try to make sense of it...even if I had the rulers! LOL!!

Update:
http://www.patchworksquare.com/mf/sa...uilt-block.pdf if anyone is interested, the pattern I needed to LOOK like the Ohio Star on point is the Sawtooth Star with some adjustment to the center square (easy to do). This site give a 6", 9", and 12" option.....(9" is close enough for me). Thanks! |

If you are interested in NOT losing your points, you might try this way of making the block.
You'll see that this graphic makes a 12" block, BUT, with the way it's made, you can easily trim each block to the exact size you want. Jan in VA |

A Ohio star is squares by 3 squares. 10" doesn't divide easily. Must it be 10? Perhaps 9? Any block "on point" is simply a square block rotate so the corners are north, south, east and west |

I also have directions for a 10" sawtooth star block but mine is not the stitch and flip method that ghostrider's is and I think the stitch and flip method is a lot easier. :)

Thanks Ghostrider.....10" is exactly what I need. I love this site!!!
