Star Quilt Pattern - A Joyous Celebration

Arrange the Quilt Blocks

1. Lay out your star quilt by alternating star blocks and snowball blocks, placing them into five rows.

2. Sew the blocks in each row together, matching seam intersections carefully. The "V" between each set of Star points should intersect and become a continuation of the diagonal seam in adjacent snowball blocks, making the snowballs appear to be set on-point. Press seams toward the Snowball blocks.

3. Sew rows together, butting seams and matching all intersections carefully. Press the quilt top.

4. Cut and add straight sewn borders from your border fabric, sewing the innter border first and then adding the wider, outer border.

   Finish the Star Quilt

   1. Mark the top for quilting if necessary.

   2. Sandwich the quilt with batting and backing. Baste and hand or machine quilt.

   3. Make binding strips and sew them to the quilt.
