Look how cute these patchwork stars are. It’s also a mini dresden, where the fans are split to alternate green and red prints. Using jewel tone batiks give an added depth of color and extra contrast with the adddition of gold. Make a set to hang on the tree or in the window using a different mix of colors for the center stars. You will be surprised how easy it is using just a little patchwork.

The star is pieced with straight sewing and no templates. Turn the star right side out, using a pointed ruler or even a chopstick to push the points out, and they’re to hang. They’re so quick and easy, using up bits of fabric scraps, once you start making them you can’t stop. Add a touch of elegance to your Christmas ornament collection.

These are really cute as an addition to a gift. Finished size of the star is 7 1/2″.
