Step 1
To start assembling place all of your
2.5” & 2” squares wrong side up so
you can mark diagonal lines. If you
can sew without them you can skip
this step.
I have found that putting this block out before sewing made this less confusing and a lot
easier to see what was going on.
Step 2
Lay out your pieces as seen in the
photo
Place the Fabric 1 4.5” square in the
center
Using the 2.5” x 4.5” from Fabric 3 &
Fabric 4, arrange around the center,
alternating colors
Step 3
Using the 2” Fabric 2 squares, arrange
them next to the center with the lines
pointing towards the center.
Pin the Fabric 2 squares to the Fabric
3 and 4 pieces. Pin, sew, and trim as
shown in the bottom picture.
Step 4
Repeat the same process as in Step 3
with the 2.5” Fabric 1 background
color. Make sure the points are the
exact same pointing towards the
center.
(Please note, in this picture the section on the far-left side is turned incorrectly.)
Step 5
Take the strips and sew them together
as shown in photo.
You will have a total of 4 units that
look like this.
To start assembling the corners:
Step 6
Arrange the following as shown in the top left
photo:
Fabric 1 - 3” square
Fabric 3 - 2” x 4.5”
Fabric 4 - 2” x 3”
You will want to arrange each of these
corner units in place next to your
center/middle units from step 5.
Arrange the eight 2” squares from
Fabric 1 for the corners as shown in
photo.
Make sure all are sewn in the correct
direction to make the ribbon
Step 7
Assembling your quilt block.
Sew from left to right starting at the top. When ironing the blocks, iron one to the left and
for next row iron to the right. This will make it easier to get your seams to match up. Once
complete, sew the rows together. You have now finished a Ribbon Star Block.
