Oh, what a charming fabric! I love star blocks. It's a joy to watch you work.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much your directions are so well explained. Do you sell the rulers for added Jane patterns.

[@sewitseamscreations]

Thank you very much for your kind words! I don't sell any rulers. I bought my Dear Jane book and the two rulers specifically for these blocks 15 years ago on Ebay. When I do the paper piecing on some blocks I use an Add-A-Quarter. For other measuring I just use a couple of small Omnigrid rulers that I've had for many years.

Very well explained, thanks! When you cut the second time your hourglass squares does the hand-stitching unravels?

[@sewitseamscreations]

I didn't have a problem with it but if I'm concerned about that possibly happening I'll make an extra back stitch at the end of the piece. I've done this after cutting on some blocks.
