Pink Antique Stars

Twelve pink Ohio stars for my antique stars variation have been made.  I'm posting a single block first, then groups of four. The blocks all have pink points even though some of the pinks look red.





I've also pieced the hour glass blocks needed. I didn't have enough of one fabrics so I've added more, just adds some variety.

These blocks finish at 4.5". I just need twelve more then I'll have enough!

I love your blocks. I have made Ohio Stars but not like that. Is the directions for the star available? Thanks for sharing. It is going to be a great quilt. Theresa

I'm foundation paper piecing all the blocks. I used my ruler and drew a pattern for a 4.5" finished star then copied it. I could get 2 star patterns on a page.

I am so not a pink girl, but I adore pink and beige color schemes in quilts!!

I don't know if my reply went thru I asked if you could show a picture of you paper copy. I love paper piecing. Since it is Spring this will be the winter project. Life is busy on the farm.
