Thank you for showing the grid once again for the newer quilters! Since I’ve been around since 1979 I was taught to think this way and I still do! To the newer quilters and those as a refresher, I think this is the easiest way to figure out your individual piece sizes - and it’s always easier if yiu end up having to trim as it’s pretty impossible to add fabric for a piece that is too small! Ask me how I know! I have a whole group of HST around somewhere that ended up too small and couldn’t be used for that particular block! I’ll eventually find them and probably have to trim down slightly for some other project😀😀😀
I love your Channel ♥️ You are excellent on giving instructions and showing them ! You, my dear, are going to Sky Rocket within the next year! Just keep doing what you're doing!! Love this block. Wow!!
Beautiful block, I love 12.5 is my favorite size. I really like watching your videos and the instructions thank you for sharing these tips and patterns.
Wow! I love it! You have to be the best online. I keep telling my quilting friends, online and in my groups, that they have to go watch your videos AND subscribe! I still think you are the best to combine a block anyone can make PLUS the Accuquilt dies. Just wonderful! Thank you! You are SEW appreciated!
Really love this block and the offset placement for the quilt. I’m going to search your blog for articles on starching fabric and/or blocks. Thanks again for inspiration!
Wonderful! I don't know if I have an article, but what a great suggestion! I use liquid Sta Flo and dilute it 50-50 with water. Shake it up each time you use it. I starch before I cut the fabric ansdvery often while piecing the blocks. I usually starch the block when it is done. After you spray the starch on the fabric, let it dry You don't want to hear the sizzle when you put the iron down on the fabric. Hope this helps!
I like this block, Carol. I would make it in desert colors, which seems appropriate, being a squash blossom design. It would appeal to my husband, who loves the southwest. Thanks.
Carol, you have wonderful directions and demos of your blocks! I love learning from you! I don’t know why I only stumbled across your website a few weeks ago! Thank you for teaching in such a clear and complete way! Your blocks are beautiful, too!
Thank you for another gorgeous design. So pretty, and interestingly asymmetric. I really like that you make most of your blocks 12 inches. It's so easy to scale down if I want to. And I can plan a great sampler, simply by watching your videos. Thank you so much.
This would be beautiful in batiks!
Yes!
I agree! Thanks for watching.

Love this Star block with your fabric lending itself to a actual squash blossom. Thanks Carol for sharing with us. 👍❤️😊
You won't believe this, but I actually never realized the connection! I just love yellow! Thanks for watching.
Yellow is one of my favourites, and so is navy and cream combinations, which I have chosen for my QAL 👍❤️😊
Thank you Carol.
You are so welcome!
very nice Carol.

Oh yes it does help and I keep liquid Sta flo on hand. Thanks. @@CarolThelen
I love that you give a generous lap size in your patterns. Perfect for the back of a couch!
That has always been my favorite quilt size. I call them couch quilts as a matter of fact! Thanks for watching.
