My first try at a Hunter's Star block
 
1 Attachment(s)
I've been wanting to try to make a Hunter's Star block for a long time now. Today I found this tutorial from Roolen & she made it so easy. My cutting & sewing accuracy was a bit off & my block measured out to be 9 5/8" square. I wasn't sure what the size was going to be as I could not find it in any of Roolen's posts. I was hoping for a 12 1/2" block for a charity quilt block drive I'm participating in so I will put a border around it to make it 12 1/2" unfinished. I'm really happy how it turned out.

Here's where Roolen posted her tutorial:

Here's a pic with the border. I decided to put on a flange (which I've never done before). I like how it turned out.

Your hunter's star is beautiful! Thanks for siting the link you used. Makes it look doable for everyone!

One key tip on the tutorial is in Step 3 & Step 4....be sure to IRON FIRST and then cut. I cut first & ironed later before I realized what was going wrong. :shock::o
