Sawtooth Stars Blocks of the Month
Layouts shown are examples only - you can pick and choose the location of your own stars with the instructions provided.
Each month, receive enough precut triangles to complete three coordinated blocks that will each finish 8" x 8". After 12 months, you'll have 36 rainbow colored blocks to assemble into a lovely low volume finished quilt.
We will send you more triangles than you need so you can pick and choose the layout of each star as you wish - a true "Choose Your Own Adventure" each month.
Don't like a print? Then simply don't include it.
Want your star points to all match? Then pair them up.
Love scrappy? Shuffle the triangles and leave the final design to chance.
We will also send you 1" finished sashing to add to each block, to add just a bit of border. Don't want the sashing? Then simply don't include it and nest the stars right next to each other in the finished design. You do you, we won't tell anyone :)
Blocks will ship on the 8th of the month, starting in November. Shipping will be FREE for all prepaid members and the first 20 prepaid members to sign up will receive a free Tim Holtz reusable shopping bag!
We will limit memberships to only the first 200 enthusiasts. You won't want to miss out on this project!!

- Stamps, worn, authentic, collected from all over the world translated in great detail for each color.
- Maps taken from vintage school geography books and atlases, some dating back to 1887, offering creative and historic value.
