I finally got this block together. I made it differently this time; I used half square triangles instead of rectangles and squares. I don’t like the look of so many seams, but I couldn’t get the piece together in the correct size doing it any other way.
I am not giving you the pattern this time, because even in EQ, it wouldn’t come out right. I don’t want you to be frustrated either.
The other thing is that TFQ and I had a disagreement about the grid of this block. I drew it on the same grid as the other Sawtooth Stars. I found, though, that she was right once I started to make it. It is really a 9 patch. I shouldn’t have disagreed. She is usually correct about such things.

Finally, this is the last 12″ block.
This is the last 12″ block.
is it supposed to look that way or is the half square triangle in the lower right rotated 90 degrees clockwise by accident?
The bottom right corner on the ribbon star looks different. Is it just colors messing with me?
I think I put it together wrong. Not ripping it out again.
It is a very pretty block regardless. 🙂 I am enjoying the parade of stars !
Love that! Parade of Stars. I’ll have to remember that.
it kind of looks like the end of ribbons the way you did it. nice mistake.
Thanks. I think it would make a nice medallion in a much larger size. 57 pieces, I think.
So pretty, it does look like it’s surrounded by ribbons.
Thanks!
I enjoy looking at the star blocks. This ribbon block is so interesting. What comes to mind is the star just beaming and shining so brightly, sort of like when fireworks explode and in the night sky.
Thanks for commenting, Janet, and thanks for your kind words!
