Star Block Fabric Example

I was asked to post pictures 
of the red, white and blue colors
for these quilts.

I pulled some fabrics
and whipped up a few blocks tonight
to show you all.
To see how this block is made.
It gives the cutting instructions...
I figured out the rest from there.
Not the best directions...
but it's a start!
I am humbled by all of your response.
Thank you ever so much!

    Oh thanks, John'aLee. I was just going to "Google" star blocks today. This will really help me. I'll be starting on these tomorrow!

    XOXO,

    I was very touched by your posts and just now I posted about it using copy/paste from your blog, to reach out to my readers. I will search through my stash to see if I have suitable fabrics to make a block too. This is the link to my blog: http://adayatatime2.blogspot.com if you wish to read my post.
    I cannot imagine the pain Tory must be suffering. My heart goes out to her and also to you, her friend.

    I sure hope I have that muted-kind of fabric so I can get started with my Stars for John'aLee. I have also borrowed your Fallen Soldier to post as I had not read that before. Please send address for mailing. judyandmartyn@nc.rr.com Judy C

    Just came over from Sew I Quilt and I'll be working on a few stars. I am so sorry for your loss and will be praying for you and your family as I make each star.
