I'm SEW excited for the Barn Star Sampler Quilt Along with Fat Quarter Shop. During 2023 - I will be quilting along to create this FABULOUS and huge quilt. The Barn Star Sampler Quilt measures 80.5" x 100.5" - so definitely choose a 108" wide fabric for an easy backing ;).
My Barn Star Sampler Quilt is going to be all Lori Holt fabrics and totally scrappy!!!! Each month I will be selecting my favorite Lori Holt prints to create the blocks. For both of my Block 1 blocks - I did choose my favorite Calico prints because I still had that fabric together in a lovely bundle.
Block 1: 24.5" x 24.5" (make 2)

This month we are making two Block 1 blocks with lots of points! But no fear - there are few methods available for perfect points that are easy!
Half-Square Triangles Options:
- AccuQuilt GO! 2" finished ( 2.5"unfinished) half-square triangle die (my preferred method)
- Bloc-loc 6.5" half-square triangle ruler
