I love the block, but love the background fabric more. Where did you find it?

I got a bunch of scraps from another quilter with no selvage, sorry.

First how did you watch a free show? What show number was it? And lastly it sounds like you did not use her ruler is that correct. You did a beautiful job on it.

This block will go with my other ( blech ) green trial blocks for a lap quilt soon. My block here measures 10-1/2 inches so it is a little bigger then hers for some reason. I will add green sashing to bring it up to 12-1/2 to fit the others.[/B][/COLOR][ATTACH=CONFIG]570119[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]

How dare you call your colors "blech"? (lol) Green is my favorite color and your block is gorgeous. Send it my way if you don't want it. I love that leaf material. I don't think I have seen it on any of my quilt fabric shops online, or I just don't recognize it.

Edited to say that I erased too much of the original post and lost the quote factor.

Every year on The Quilt Show site, the years of back shows are free to basic members for Quilt Weekend. I can't remember the number of her episode but Deb Tucker has about 40 videos on YouTube so I bet it is there for the Lemoyne Star. Her method is done by strip piecing the two colours with about 20 inch long pieces. The strata is cut at 45 * angles to give the correct size strips. All that can be done with a ruler that has a good 45* mark. Where her ruler would come in handy is trimming that exact size for the diamonds pieces when done. Since you end up with 4 patches when sewing the last pieces together, I just squared my 4 patches inner edges up with a square. This is what made my block a little bigger I think.

A very nice block! It would make a beautiful star quilt.

Great work, and I love the color contrast.
