June 2012 Block of the Month

The June block of the month is the

Ribbon Star block

. This star is from Barbara Brackman’s book

The Encyclopedia Of Pieced Quilt Patterns

, and the original source of the design is unknown. Use whites or lights with bright colors to create your half square triangles. This will make a 12" finished quilt block, or 12-1/2" unfinished. Again, the pictorial tutorial by Faith of Fresh Lemons can be found

here

.

Leave a comment here or send an email if you have any questions on making this block. I am happy to help answer any questions. Bring your block(s) to the June 6 meeting for the OMQG block lotto! You get one chance for each block you make. As always, have fun.
