Quilt Shot Block #58b ~ Woven Friendship Star WIP for QOV

Woven Friendship Star

***********************************

Uses basically 4 fabrics (colors), Red, white, blue, off white

Last week, I made one block so I'd have something to share for the Quilt Shot Block

Here are some of my experiences & some things I jotted down to remember about making this block for QOV.

I got up the next morning, Sunday, and decided to at least put these 2 blocks together.

Compared to the slow cutting process yesterday, and probably because I wasn't as tired, the matching of seams and sewing went rather quickly.

They turned out great! Didn't have to restitch a single one.

I noticed the same 2 squares just flipped to go in the top row.

So I quickly made all 16.

Then I added the next square which required no seam matching.

 In no time, all 16 rows were finished.

 I had no idea I'd get this much done before church.

 I still had an hour before it was time to get ready, so I pressed them.

 Would you believe time got away from me and I was late to church!

After church and lunch and a small ride around beautiful Satellite Beach, Fl, we got back to the condo and I couldn't wait to finish the blocks since they went together so fast.

I took half of the 16 rows I made, and rotated them.  To make the middle column I took half the red/white blocks and rotated them.

 Then continued to make the middle row, then the blocks.

 Seams pressed as shown before strips were sewn.

So by cutting 2 ten inch blocks of each color and eight 4½ inch center white blocks,

I got 8 Woven Friendship Star blocks.

I'm making 8 more.
