Rising Star QAL block G

It’s time for Block G for the rising Star QAL

This block is a full sized block so 8″ if you’re using the 8″ QUBE set and there’s 4 blocks total.

Here’s what you need for this block

A White: 16 of shape #4 triangles and 16 of shape #5 triangles

D Black: 32 of shape #5 triangles

E Light Blue: 32 of shape #5 triangles

F Dark Blue: 16 of shape #5 triangles

Since I goofed up and made double the sets of block D, I had to rip out a lot of seams and I wanted to show this nifty seam ripper I have, it has a funky rubber cap on it, but that’s designed to rub lightly on the fabric to remove those tiny threads from previous stitching! It’s my favorite ripper 🙂

Now sew the HSTs and flying geese together following the pattern and it’s important to press the seams OPEN!

The center of the block has a pinwheel and with the seams pressed open, it doesn’t get as bulky, you can’t avoid bulk there but it helps with the seams open!

Here are the finished 4 blocks in each size I’m making.

The pattern is “Rising Star” and you can get it here in my shop.

Have fun!!
