Happy Block Heads Wednesday!
Here is another great Quilt Block FOR OUR QUILT ALONG PROJECT: Hampshire Star
My 4″ Hampshire Star quilt block was made with Urban Farmhouse Gatherings.
Again…I LOVE how my quilt along project block turned out…I think this is the smallest block I have ever made with this many tiny pieces…it sure turned out cool…
You will have to go to Janet’s Blog to get the pattern for all the directions. But the week’s directions do not have the 4″ size…so scroll down for the cutting measurements if you are doing the 4″ blocks.
Thanks Janet for such a fun beautiful block!

Isn’t she the cutest? Can you hear her British accent! I could listen to her talk for hours…Hello Janet…I will miss you this Spring…it’s a long time til Houston!
I pieced the block a little differently than the pattern….
As you can see this makes it a little easier and less pieces…only 73, I think… if I can count right.
Hampshire Star 4 ” finished Cutting Measurements
Click HERE for PDF of Hampshire Star 4″ cutting directions…
9- SQUARE IN A SQUARE UNITS-In the center like a nine patch
Center squares 1 1/4″ Triangles- 1 1/2″ squares cut in half once on the diagonal. Trim them to 1 1/2″ square at this point. ( the 1 1/2″ is a little big. I like to trim SQinaSQ)
4- FLYING GEESE UNITS– 1- 2 1/4″ square, cut in half twice -LG triangle 4-1 3/8″ squares, cut in half once. Geese should measure 1″x 1 1/2″ at this point.
4 HALF SQUARE TRIANGLES I used 1/2″ half square triangle paper….cut dark/light fabric to 1 3/4″ x 3 1/4″. Stitch according to directions. If not using TP…cut 2 squares/ light & dark- 1 3/8″ for exact measurements. Cut bigger if you want to trim them down. Trim to 1″at this point.
8 RECTANGLES 1″ x 1 1/2″
You will need to determine what is light/dark/medium for your quilt along project fabrics. I switched the dark and the light from the pattern…
