I will make one! I have some beautiful purple and a purple/with ivory backgroud. Gotta find a star pattern and then will get it done and in the mail by Monday.

We are talking 6 inch finished, right?

Maryq, if you want to do the flying geese star, use the small end of the 3 X 6 geese ruler. You would need the 4 1/2" square for the large triangle color, and a 6" square for the two small triangle color. The center square would need to be 3 1/2" and the corner squares cut at 2".


For the friendship star, the corner squares and center square would be cut at 2 1/2" and for the half square triangles, cut the squares at 3" and after making the units, trim to 2 1/2" using the square up ruler.

If the above instructions are not clear, let me know and I will try to find instructions somewhere that are more clear.
