The Friendship Star Quilting
Block<
The friendship star block is an
easy block. It is constructed using half square triangles and square
blocks. The easiest way to make this block
is using the
half square method method #2. Make your 4 triangles. Use
the easy measurements, so they finish at 2 inches. Make them with a
dark fabric for the star, and a light fabric for the background. Also cut out 2 rectangles, 2 7/8 x
5 3/4 (One in each fabric.)
Then piece the top and bottom row,
per the picture, and sew the horizontal seams.
The seams are usually pressed away
from the center block. If you have used easy
measurements, the block should measure 6 1/2 inches.
