This month our star block is “Moonlight Star”

-- one partner

-- All of the blocks in this series will be beginner level so everyone can participate!

December Moonlight Star

Note: Keep in mind that the tutorials are for multi-colored stars but we will be using white and one other color. HOWEVER, you may use more than one print in recipients color choice in your stars.

Example: You may want to use white as your background for the block and two different red prints for the actual star. Use your imagination and have fun with these blocks.

Senders will make one 12 ½” star quilt block for recipients in white and recipients color choice as posted in comments below.

(Finished star blocks will be 12” when assembled in a project.)

Each month we will make a different star quilt block for a total of 12 which we can use on individual projects or put together for one quilt.

Doing your neatest work make one 12 ½” block for your partner using white (plain white, or tone-on-tone white) and any shades of the color they choose. If they want blue then use a print fabric that is mostly blue. The blue print you use may include other colors if they are very small and do not take away from the basic color blue. Keep in mind that the tutorials are for multi-colored fabrics and we are using two colors.

Senders pick a basic color that would be easy for any partner to find either in their stash or at their favorite fabric shop.

I hope you have enjoyed this series of quilt blocks for 2015. I have begun to plan for next year’s series of blocks so if you have any specific block you would like to do thru-out the year in 2016, please let me know.
