Begin by making the lone star.
Lay out one set of the nine fabric strips in three sets of three. Try where possible to have light dark light or dark light dark in your trios. Save the other set of nine strips for the borders.

Sew the strips together, in three sets of three. Once they are sewn press. Cut 8 x diagonal sub sets of the strip sets at a 45 degree angle at a 2 1/2″ intervals. Sew the sub sets together to make Eight diamonds of the nine fabrics in each diamond. Sew the diamonds together to make the Lone Star. Begin each seam from the centre of the star units. Ensure all seams are nested. Press gently and carefully so that all seams are rotating in the one direction.about:blank

This is the view from the back of the Lone Star block.

Use the the 7 1/2″ background squares to set into the corners of the lone star and the half square triangles to set into the remaining triangular parts of the block.
Sew these seams from the centre out, rather than from the corners in. Commence sewing 1/4″ from the edge of the centre point to allow for setting in the angled seams.
Once the block is complete, trim to 23″ square.
Now add the 2″ strips to make the first border. Press. The quilt should now measure 26 1/2″.
To make the second and forth borders, sew the remaining 9 of the 2 1/2″ strips / sets together. Cross cut the strip sets every 2 1/2″ at 90 degrees.
Begin Border Two by adding 13 x 2 1/2″ squares from the strip sets. Sew 13 squares to two opposite sides of the quilt. Then add 15 x 2 1/2″ squares to the other two sides. Press.
For Border Three add one round of the White 2 1/2″ strips. Press.

For Border Four add 17 squares of the strip sets to two opposite sides of the quilt. Then add 19 squares of the strip sets to the other two sides. Press.
