 BLOCKS by SIZE | 10" Quilt Blocks |
What could be easier, math-wise, than a quilt block in a 10 inch size? Surprisingly, the 10" block is not the most commonly used size, (that would be the 12" block), but there are still many quilt blocks that fit into this category and here is my list of currently available patterns.
Star in Square
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Star in Square quilt block is a five patch block featuring lots of half square triangles and also quarter square triangles. There are a few squares thrown in for good measure, but overall this is a star block featuring lots of points. It's a good choice for the learning experience of practicing up on your triangle patches and is a nice change from the usual selections for quilters who are beginning their journey in quiltmaking.
Even though this block is a five patch, I choose to sew it as an uneven nine patch for the simple reason that I like working in "chunks" rather than in rows. You can choose your preferred method and the end result will be the same stunning block.
