Hi, I’m 82 and I’m obsessed with your quilt block instructions, you are amazing!
I have never seen such great detail as this. I want to make one but I worked until a few years ago.
Each morning I turn on my TV and look for you. I cannot comment on tv but today I was determined to tell you I think you’re the best and I am so happy I found you.
Geri
Wow thank you for the kind feedback Geri❣️
Looks great! I would never have realized the difference in the point until you measured it!
You had me with 'star' - but then you had to go and throw in 'the easy way' and now I'm running to get fabric from my stash! LOL
Awesome Becca! it looks trickier than what it really is.....I think a rainbow of dif colors would look good on this star too✅ Have fun with it!🌸
Loved it! Thank you for very easy tutorial, I didn't think I could do this block but it's going in my next quilt very soon.❤❤❤❤❤
You sound like you have as bad of a cold as I have. Loved the tutorial ! Take care of you!
I feel much better. My voice is catching up slowly 💛
Feel better!
Thank you for caring Linda...I appreciate it very much!💛 I do feel fine...just waiting for my voice to catch up✅
Hey, I haven't left just so far behind got them twins to cuddle with LOL
Oh twins are twice the cuddle fun LOL😂 Enjoy them now!💛
What a beautiful block! Thank you for solving the mystery 🎉
I was intrigued by the illusion! I needed to watch this! Very nice 👍. Thanks
This was a fun block to figure out Nilda🌸
If this is the easy version, I’d hate to see the difficult version. I’m joking. It is beautiful and you did a great job. Hope you feel better soon.
Lol 😂 Patty! I know! It is the easiest version we will say lol! Thanks for making me laugh 💛
I feel fine. I think it’s laryngitis now🤷🏻♀️
That was excellent, thanks, Tracy.take care. 😍🇦🇺
Awe thank you so much margm4💛
Great tutorial & block! Thank you Tracey...make yourself a hot toddy with lemon, honey & of course water & maybe a dribble of something stronger! Then go to bed, take Josie with you, and sleep for a little while. Feel
better soon!!!
Thank you for caring Joy💛❤️💜 I am already feeling much better!!
The red star is spinning in the opposite direction from the blue and green stars. Can you do a short follow up video to address that, please? Beautiful blocks, and thanks for your precise explanations!
I really like your orient block. I may have to try it and make a whole quilt top with it. That means I'd be moving it ahead of current projects on the list, but oh well. Life is short. Do something you love.
That’s right Sue💛💛 Do what you love and you will be happier 💖
You can glue baste the squares on the corners. Just a small drop of washable glue heat set with the iron keeps the squares from shifting and the pins won't be in the way way.
Really pretty block!
Love your tee shirt
Lol 😂 thanks Lupie! Maybe I will have them to sell soon🤷🏻♀️
I was looking to see if you did!
A really cute block!!
I really like this one too Elizabeth🌸

Wow Leesa..I bet your star collection is amazing⭐️

Thank you Terri...it's a fun one!💛
Very nice block, and great tutorial! Like you, I've tried to become more precise in my piecing. I now trim up every block to exact size, which I didn't always bother to do, and the results show it.
Glad it was helpful Beth....it's definitely a journey of learning when it comes to quilting💛✅
I spend hours watching and learning
Absolutely amazing!!! Thank you very much. I can not wait to try this one. Just love your videos and ideas. You are inspiring
Thank you so much Shari...I really do appreciate your kind words🌸
Great tutorial!
Thank you Katherine!💛
I'm really not a fan of the star block, but I really like yours because of the spinning effect of the star. Much nicer and more interesting to look at than a regular star block. I did notice sweet little Josie's voice in the background, and also how sick you sound. Poor you! As soon as you are able, tuck yourself into bed and sleep off your cold so that you'll be able to enjoy the holiday weekend. Have your hubby make or buy some gourmet chicken soup for you. Thanks for another great tutorial, Tracy!!!! 🥰
I agree Dori that this spinning star definitely adds more interest ✅ I really do feel fine. My voice makes things sound worse🤷🏻♀️laryngitis possibly 🤷🏻♀️not sure. Going on 1&1/2 weeks now. Maybe I will let my hubby take care of 😉
@@TheSewingChannel Uh, 1 1/2 weeks??? You don't seem to be fine; not your usual energetic self. Time to get into Urgent Care and find out what's going on. Laryngitis doesn't last more than a couple of days. Don't delay! Will be praying for you! 🙏🏻
I really do feel much better...I was on the "Z pac" which is awesome! My voice is just taking longer to heal LOL😂 Thank you for caring Dori❤️
@@TheSewingChannel Glad you went to see the doctor. Have a (voice) restful weekend! 😉
@@TheSewingChannel Hey Tracy: I've decided that I want to use this Orient Star block pattern to make a full quilt, with different colors of stars. It will be a work in progress over time. Would use complimentary printed fabric scraps for the star points, and then use a complimentary plain colored fabric for the inside (snowball) area. It would make for a simple, beautiful, colorful quilt. I've got a g'zillion fat quarters that I've purchased at JoAnn's and WalMart over the years that I really need to use in a quilt project, so this would be a great block pattern to do this with. I want a sewing project that I can pick up and work on for 15 to 30 mins. at a time, which should be about the time it takes to make a block or two if the fabric is pre-cut and ready to sew. 🙂 I would think I could easily produce 20 to 30 blocks over the course of a few months - maybe eventually make a quilt 5 blocks x 7 blocks. Would be fun to make a scrappy piano keyboard border (5" wide) with the same fat quarter fabric used to make all the blocks, to get use them up and make the quilt more colorful. 😃
This is a really neat block!! Thanks for the detailed tutorial!!
You are so welcome Veda🌸
Thanks!
WOW❤️ Thank you so much❣️
Love this pattern! Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome Doralee🌸
💞 Love this!
Thank you NL! Mee too🌸
Wow! You blew my mind at the end! I'm gonna have to try this one soon. Thanks for this and all your videos!
You are so welcome Carol!✅ This is a fun block! Happy Quilting🌸
Have always found this block beautiful and now, thanks to your video, I am going to try it after my current 3 projects are done. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, tips and treasures. I want to do the French Rose block as well after watching your videos. Rock on!!!
Wonderful Deb...quilting is so much fun!!!💛
I loved this block and you did make it easy thank you
That's cool. I hope your better.
Thank you Nita...yes I am feeling much better....hopefully my voice will be back real soon🌸
Wow! Tracey I hope you feel better real so thank you for taking your time and explaining as you go! This looks awesome!❤🙏😇🌞
Thanks so much for the well wishes Neva💛...I really do feel fine...maybe it's just laryngitis 🤷🏻♀️ I hope it goes away soon!
Beautiful!
Awe thank you Donna!🌸
I would try this Tracy if I sewed. Awesome video!!😄🤗💕
Lol 😂
Another interesting video and chat! Thank you for posting this!
Interesting for sure!✅
This block is so neat! Good explanation on its construction. Thank you! Love all the colors, too.
Thanks so much Cindy💛 I love this one too
I love this!! Your instructions make such good sense. It looks like a quick block to make, perfect! I have 11 quilt projects going and I need to finish them, then I'll start this one!❤😂 thanks so much!
❤️❤️ Great Tutorial! Hope you feel better soon. 🙏
Thank you so much for the kind feedback!🙏🏼💛
You are a precious person. Thanks for being you. I have learned so much from each tutorial. I am also learning matching points on Spaceman quilt for my grandson. It was more than I expected, but am getting through it slowly. Great tips!!
Thank you GK for the kind feedback 💛 I love helping /teaching💛
Oh wow - what a brilliant method to make a combination square! I love it. Thank you. 😊
You’re so welcome Janis💛✅ have a great Memorial weekend 💛
I made a quilt using a star like this without the snowballing. It was from lori holt. I did it because i knew i wouldnt cut off the star points.lol! I love it. I used the cutoffs to make a sawtooth border. Your precision tips are awesome! Thanks!
You're welcome Phyllis💛 Thank you for watching🌹
Wow! You blew my mind at the end! I need to try this block😊
Thanks for a great video, Tracey! I am going to try this. Hope you are feeling better!
I hope you do give this one a try Deborah✅ I am feeling better already...💛Thank you for caring💛
Beautiful block! I will try to make it one day. Thanks for your video.
Thank you Deena...I hope you do try it one day💛
Very pretty, I love your choice of colors.
Thank you so much Ann🌸 I think all different rainbow colors would be so pretty too💛
Beautiful
Thank you so much Karen🌸
This is just beautiful !!!
Thank you so much Becky💛 I love how it turned out✅🌸
Oh my I can't wait to try this block it's gorgeous and you explain it perfectly 😍
I love this block too! Have fun with it!!!!💛🌸
I want to see Josephine!
💛 I just love that baby!!!💛
Great block. Going to try this one too! Thank you 😊
Awesome! Looks harder than it really is! You can do it !💛
You sound like you are about to loose your voice. I loose my voice, for a day or two, after mowing the grass (and I ware a mask while mowing). Just hearing that baby girl's voice made my day a happy one. I think a fussy cut print rose in the center of this block would be a knockout (with that star as a frame). I have never tried making one of these blocks; because, it looks to hard. I may give this a good try. Thank you. Hug that baby girl for me, please.
Last night's storm really did a job on my real Knockout Roses. It looks like a football team stomped through them. I'll have to prune them some more, if the sun doesn't help them stand up again. More rain and storms for today are expected.
💛Thank you Arvetta-I am feeling much better...just waiting for my voice to catch up!
I absolutely love your idea of the fussy cut rose in the center....oh that would look amazing I think!!!🌹 Let me know if you give this block a try✅
Seems like storms are making their way everywhere this week🙁 Stay safe my quilty friend!!!!🌸
Hi, Tracy! I LOVE your videos! keep ‘em coming. Please tell me about the design wall behind you in this video. Is that a cutting mat? or is it fabric? Either way, It would be a great addition to my sewing room. BTW, I agree with GeriMJ; I look forward to your videos every day.
Thank you for the kind words. My design wall Is called "superboard"..it is made of cardboard✅
I've made this block by making half square triangles from one fabric, and triangles of half background half the other fabric and assembling them with a partial seam around the centre octagon. This method uses less fabric (no scraps) and no tricky matching. You don't get that nice floating effect of the white around the outside, and stars are rotated 45 degrees from your blocks so you'd have add a border and set the blocks on point to be identical, but I like both final blocks
Thank you so much for all of that info...I appreciate it✅ I like the spinning effect of this block for sure!🌸
Sorry, it was a long time ago and my description isn't correct. What you do is cut an octagon with all sides of equal length. Then you cut a square of each color and two squares of background diagonally twice. Sew each background triangle to a color triangle, the color triangle always on the same side. Then assemble these large pieced triangles around the octagon using a partial seam. The result is a large octagon which you can make into a square by adding small triangles to four corners. Sorry for any confusion I may have caused. I hope I got the instructions right this time! I'll have to make one to be sure.
I actually knew exactly what you meant B.A. ✅ You are describing the “y” seam method? Right? 💛
@@TheSewingChannel No y seams, a partial seam. I wish I could send you a picture. You start with an octagon with 8 equal sides, and 8 triangles,each half color and half background. You sew the color part of the long side of the triangle to the octagon with a partial seam. The next triangle is then sewn to the octagon and straight along the side of the first triangle. Repeat until the 8th triangle then complete the partial seam. You then have the star in an octagon. The triangles are made by sewing together 2 quarter squares, one color and one background, with the color always on the same side. This may not be a "real" orient star, but block names are so slippery, different names for the same block, and different blocks with the same name, so who knows?
IIRC, I actually made this block long ago to get a symmetric 8-point star, like a Lemoyne star, without needing any y seams. I didn't make it up, I got it out of a book! I'm less afraid of y seams now, but still prefer to avoid them!
I think I understand what you mean now✅
Hi. I have a possible hack to make this easier. Go ahead and sew the star legs first. Lay the blocks out. In the center block just pin the stitch and flip fabric in place and place in the center location. Then take a ruler and a frixion pen and align the ruler along the star leg extending into the center and mark that intersection on the back of the stitch and flip fabric. Then repeat on all corners. Then put your block together. ❤️
Can you share your pattern, would be amazing...? Love your teaching
All the measurements are in the video✅
Hi again! Im msking a star quilt a variety of pattern blicjs but i decided on 12.5 unfinished. Hiw would i cut tjis pattern to make it 12.5? You are such a great teacher. I love your channel
Thdnk you for yoyr awesome Ideas!
Oh my Paula...me and quilt math do NOT get along LOL🤣 I usually make different size mock ups to see what works✅
Simple blocks with straight lines...my favorite. Thank you Tracy for making this so simple. By the way...I love that large clapper. May I ask where I can get one like it? Thanks! Love your channel. 👍🏻
PJ - I made the clapper in the video...super easy ....here's the tutorial on it✅ ua-cam.com/video/ZJDknsneC84/v-deo.html
Do you have laryngitis? I just got over that. Take care!!!
Not sure Anita🤷🏻♀️ But I am just getting over a sinus infection✅
I'm wondering as I watch the video, if you glued the red 1 1/2 square in the corner that you're gonna cut off would that be better than using pins?
Love this!! Do you have printable instructions?
Thank you for stopping by Becky!🌸 No, I'm sorry I do not. Maybe in the future🤷🏻♀️
Very good! Did you starch all your fabric?
Yes I starched all of it Rosalie✅
would adding a little bit of stick glue help hold the small corners in place?
It could help if it were "flapping up" on you✅
Awesome block. Thank you. I hope you feel better soon. Sounds like you are loosing your voice.
You're welcome Louise💛 My voice has been like this for a week and a half🤷🏻♀️ Could be a bit of laryngitis ...but I'm not sure...I don't feel sick though...Thank you for caring💛
I've been looking for a block so I can make for a couple of lap quilts for our elderly at church. This is the one. What size is the blocks?
The blocks end up 14" approximately when finished.✅
Looks complicated, but I don't sew. Eyes always give you an elution.
If you did sew Ernest...it would be easy✅💛 Good to see you in the comments🌸
How do I send you a picture of a quilt? I would like to get your help with it. Maybe you make it easier to make.

Is there a PDF? I can't find how to download it.
No PDF Barbara....sorry.
I love your videos, but I’m sure having trouble understanding you on this one. Hope your voice is back soon. Bless you.
Sorry about that Patsy....this block does seem to be a bit more advanced....try watching the video without sound and see if that helps.✅ Thank you for the well wishes...I do feel better...if my voice would only catch up💛
you got a cold oh no take care.
Not really sick....waiting for my voice to catch up🤷🏻♀️
they shouldn't be the same! You put a half inch of the fabric into the seam!
Yes you are right and I’m no good at quilt math lol 😂 but somehow it all works 🤷🏻♀️
Why are you so serious today? Are you okay?
Lol I’m just getting over a cold 🥶 🤧
