Arrange the Quilt Blocks
- Lay out your star quilt by alternating star blocks and snowball blocks, placing them into five rows.
- 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.
- Sew rows together, butting seams and matching all intersections carefully. Press the quilt top.
- 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
- Mark the top for quilting if necessary.
- Sandwich the quilt with batting and backing. Baste and hand or machine quilt.
- Make binding strips and sew them to the quilt.
- Mark the top for quilting if necessary.
