Finally! A tool and block-making technique that will allow any quilter to quickly, easily and accurately piece traditional Lemoyne Star blocks in 10 different sizes! The block units are strip pieced, assembled without using any “Y” seams, and constructed so that the blocks themselves are slightly oversized….so at the end, each can be trimmed to an exact size. Available in five different sizes, Beaujolais is a great block to use with a jelly roll. Or, raid your stash and cut a variety of 2½” strips. Join Beth in this fun, productive and eye-opening workshop – she’ll have you seeing stars! Bring your own fabric; see supply list for details.
