Shoo-Fly Blocks

One fabric color I have plenty of is blues, lots of blues, from darks to lights.  So I had plenty of blues to choose from to sew blue shoo-flies for June.

Here are 25 of the 49 blocks that were pieced. These little blocks finish at 4".

These blocks and the rest of the shoofly blocks will be used to make the center of Star Dance larger. 

Here is a link to the Star Dance pattern.

  1. Sure you have plenty of beautiful blue scraps.
    The 25 shoofly blocks look so pretty together.
    If I undestand right they will be used as borders to Star Dance, is it?
    Just wonderful, Gretchen!

  7. Will the little blue blocks go around the border of the Stars? Or is this the 2nd Star Dance quilt you are making? (Late in commenting). Hugs
