A variation of the
Friendship Star quilt block
The finished size of this block is 22½".
After it is quilted and bound, it will
be a great little table topper or wall
quilt. You could also add an outside
border if you wanted to make it a little
bigger.
What a good way to use up those
leftover half-square triangles from
those Flying Geese blocks!
A clever variation of this quilt block
is as simple as using the same fabric
in the center of the block that you
used for the star points. It gives a
whole different look to the design.
And now you have a variation of the
Friendship Star Wreath quilt!
Friendship Star quilt block made up in a wreath formation.
Made with leftover half-square triangles from Flying Geese blocks.

So, the next time you're making Flying
Geese quilt blocks, remember you'll
have some bonus half-square triangles
to play with! It's super easy to put
together half-square triangles and
make another Friendship Start quilt
block. See if you can make up your own
combination of half-square triangles!
Until next time...happy quilting.
