HOW TO SEW A “EIGHT POINTED STAR” TUTORIAL | AGF QUILT BLOCK COLLECTION

As a child, I used to love to hear stories of magical worlds filled with unexplained beauty, make-believe creatures, and stories that would my take your mind on an insightful journey packed with adventure and possibilities. 

Alexandra Bordallo’s debut collection for AGF called Dew and Moss brings me back to my youth with her whimsy prints illustrating a world where gnomes play in their gardens and live in their mushroom houses. Not only are all the prints super adorable, but the color palette is what caught my eye right away. The shades of green mixed with the wonderful pops of reds and peaches are so delightful!

I had so much fun sewing up the “Eight Pointed Star” block, I fussy cut the cute girl gnome watering her plants and used prints with snails, ladybugs, florals, and bunting to surround her. 

This is such a sweet collection I hope to sew more with!  To check out my latest block tutorial enjoy the video below! :) 

 

Happy Sewing, 

Meli

    :) Thanks Rosemary! You always know how to make me smile! I am pretty much like a kid in a candy store when it comes to fabric and sewing! Getting to make videos and sharing them people that love the same thing I do makes me feel like a kid that gets to go to Disney World. Believe it or not I am probably about the shyest person you could ever meet. As I get older I am starting to break about of my shell though. So the fact that I am up their doing videos and being my goofy fun loving self and to be excepted means the world to me! The print of the blouse is so cute but most of all I enjoy the color! It’s a pretty quick block to make and my favorite part is squaring up the block! Enjoy making the block! Happy Sewing! :)
