Block #5 Hand pieced quilt a long


Block # 5 was a whole lot of fun to stitch!  I can't believe in all my years of quilting I have never made a Ohio Star block!  Since these blocks stitch up in an evening, I have continued with hand piecing some HST's for a future quilt, more about that later.........

    1. Yes it is hard to think I never have. I guess that is why I keep quilting, so many more blocks to try

    1. Yes, and I struggle with machine piecing so this is a good solution. Although learning to hand piece makes me understand how to improve my machine piecing.

  3. Sew pretty! I cut mine today and traced before the cookie booth tonight. Think I'll make the hst's tonight and the rest tomorrow. Can't wait to hear about the new project with hst's.
