Hunter Star


This was a new star for me when I added it to the BOMs, the Hunter Star. A friend made a whole quilt of this block, and I liked the star, so I've written up my own directions for it.

For the hunter star block you will need two contrasting star colors and the a background-
      from all three fabrics cut four 3 7/8 inch squares
      from your background cut four 3 1/2 inch squares


This block is made up of a lot of diagonal half squares. (You can find directions with diagrams for making diagonal half squares by following this link. .)


You need to use all the 3 7/8 inch squares to make diagonal half squares. You will need four diagonal half-squares of each one of these combinations.


Make two of these
      and two of these

then assemble your Hunter Star as shown here. Your finished star should measure 12 1/2 inches.
