The Alternating Block for Square in a Star Quilt Video Tutorial

As promised, here’s the tutorial for the alternating block for the Square in a Star quilt block that I did last week. This is a tweak on the classic alternating block for the State Fair block. I love the traditional look it creates with the Square in a Star block plus it looks good on its own! Let’s get sewing! Fabric Requirements for a 12“ Finished Alternating Block for Square in a Star: Light/White: 1 - 4.5“ square, 4 - 2.5“ x 4.5“ rectangles, and 8 - 2.5“ squares Light/Blue: 4 - 2.5“ x 4.5“ rectangles, and 4 - 2.5“ squares Dark/Blue: 4 - 2.5“ x 4.5“ rectangles, and 4 - 2.5“ squares Dark/Purple: 4 - 2.5“ x 4.5“ rectangles, and 4 - 2.5“ squares (I know the purples don’t really look like purple in the video, but they really are. I’m blaming my camera instead of my photo editing skills - lol!) For a detailed tutorial, check out the blog post
