21. Sew now 5 more pieces as shown in
the previous steps. When finished you will
have 6 pieces.
|
|
22. Place the first 2 pieces with right sides
facing each other. Match the middles. Sew
along the side line from the middle to the
side.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
23. After sewing, cut the small center point
away or it will get too thick with each new
addition.
|
|
24. Trim the excess seam allowance after
each new added piece. This prevents
bulking.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
25. With right sides facing again, sew the
third piece on to the second. This is how it
looks when finished. Now sew the other
three pieces to each other so that you now
have 2 star halves.
|
|
26. Position now each half with right sides
facing over each other, matching the
middles. Pin together and sew together.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
27. This is now how the star looks.
|
|
28. Cut 6 same size rhombus shapes out
of your back side fabric and first sew the
first three together and then the second
three pieces. As before, match the 2 half
stars and sew together.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finishing: Now place the back side of the star on the first side (patchwork side) with right sides facing. Leaving a side open for turning, sew the 2 stars together. Turn the star inside out so that you are on the right side. Hand sew the open edge together and press with an iron using a steam setting.
