Larger quilt blocks offer the incentive that there are less to make to produce your quilt. When time is limited, this size of block is your best friend. A second feature is that you can try a more difficult design as the pieces may be many, but the sizes of the patches are easy to work with. A win-win all around.

Blue Ridge Mountain Star

Free Quilt Block Pattern

Choose the Blue Ridge Mountain Star quilt block if you would like to make a larger block and therefore you require fewer blocks to make a quilt. A win-win situation!

This is an eight patch block that is actually sewn in "chunks" (as I like to call them) and assembled as an uneven nine patch, just to make the whole sewing process easier. This "star within a star" quilt block is a stunning design.

The block features half square triangles, some square in a square patches and a few quarter square triangles thrown in for good measure.
