I really like projects that (without putting in much effort) immediately give a nice result. This eight point diamond star seems difficult to make, but it really isn't. For this star I used a pattern that I came across an old Quiltingbook. The technique is simple.
1. sew fabric strips together to make a block.
2. cut eight star points out plastic coated freezer paper.
3. iron the points on the blocks.
4. cut out with seam allowance.
5. sew star points together and "ta da" you got a star!
This is also an excellent way to shrink your scrap pile. There is only one problem, what to make of this block!

I have a blog
It took me some time to figure it all out. But finally I did it!
It's working, I got my own blog. I hope this is just the beginning of a long journey full of nice crafty things and thoughts to share.
