Default Interesting way to make a Hunter's Star

Saw this and thought about a discussion I saw here a few days ago: https://mypatchwork.wordpress.com/20...easy-quilting/

WOW! Hunter's star is on my bucket list. I think this is by far the easiest construction I've seen. I thought I wouldn't like the additional seams in the large squares, but it looks like it adds additional texture.
Thanks for posting.

Must try just for kicks and grins! Love how some blocks can be constructed in so many different ways. I also think that before accuquilt mfgrd the hunter star die, there was/is a way to make one using a technique very similar to this one.

Anyone know if there is a PDF for this particular pattern. It looks easy enough but I don't want to be running back and forth to my computer.

There's not a pdf, but if you scroll down a bit from the video, there are 4 or so still photos that you can print off. Basically make 4 HST, cut them into quarters & rearrange.

I like that it makes a very big block when the four blocks are sewn together. Four completed blocks will be about 80" long.
