    A couple of ladies had asked me in a PM about this pattern and after quite a bit of searching I found it and that's the one I followed to make my stars. Good luck!!!

    The only thing I did differently, I used my 12 1/2" ruler, took it on an angle and stuck some tape on the 5 1/2" marker for the small triangles and on 9" for the large ones. I found it easier.

    No Mary, I haven't tried 1.5 strips and actually I was thinking about it and wondering... How many different fabric do you take and on what do you align your ruler to cut the triangles???
    Would love to get your input on that. Thanks

    I've made these and been pleased with how easy they are once you get the hang of them. Yours are so pretty
