How to Sew Quilt Fairy Dreams Block 9

It is time for December’s Quilt Fairy Dreams Block of the Month, and this one feels perfectly at home in the heart of the holiday season. Block 9 is a beautiful star built with half-square triangles, bow-tie units, and a crown of banded flying geese that frames everything just right. In the video, Angela shares an efficient eight-at-a-time HST method, smart trimming tips for accuracy, and simple pressing tricks that help your seams nest smoothly and your center lay nice and flat, even with all those joyful details coming together.
