Winter Blues Blog Hop and More!

I'm so happy to join a fabulous group of quilters for the Winter Blues Blog Hop.

What could be nicer than joining in on the Winter Blues Blog Hop?   Completing your Winter Blues table topper AND looking at your topper, out your window, onto a Winter Blues Wonderland!

Star Burst Tutorial from the Missouri Star Quilt Company  Basically take two 10" squares (background and a color), place right sides together, sew around the perimeter, slice in half diagonally twice, to get four half square triangles. I made 100 HSTs (25 for each quadrant).   Mine turns out to be about 56" square.
