So when I saw a Columbian Star on Diary of a Quilt Maven's blog, I begged for a tutorial. And I wasn't the only one! LOL ;-) Thanks Monica!!
I dug through my bins until I found 5 CW prints that would go together and then I cut and sewed. Since I used FQ's I only got one block, but that just means I can have more variety, right? :-) Monica's tutorial made it really easy. My sewing skills didn't. Ummm, next time I will be sure to use my machine with the walking foot. ;-) Yes, there will be a 'next time' and another and another until I have enough blocks for a quilt~ one down, 23 to go! :-)) But I am in no hurry. This is going to be one of those 'long term' projects. ;-)
Hope you are having a little fun sewing too~
Until next time..
Happy stitchin'!!

Hi Sandie, if you love stars and diamonds, check out Inklingo.com You print the sewing and cutting lines on the fabric. It makes some really trick blocks really easy.
