We separate the list and quantity of fabrics you will need:

  • 4 different fabrics – Cut 5 x 2 inch strips across the width of the fabric from each of the fabrics;
  • Binding – 120 X 2 ½ inches (3 x width of fabric);
  • Backing – 37 inches x 37 inches;
  • Batting – 37 inches x 37 inches (I used a thin pelon).

It is essential that you are accurate with your piecing. Stitch 4 x 2 inch scrap strips together, press and measure. They should measure 6 ½ inches in width. Adjust your seam allowance if necessary by moving your needle position. One word of advice, the resulting discard blocks have edge sections that are cut on the bias, they will stretch, so if you have to unpick a block and take it out of your quilt it is best to it and replace it with a complete new one. If you wish you may press, not iron your pieces before assembling each block with a good ironing aid product. Shall we quilt? The spinning star quilt pattern is available at .
