Sew Your Stash Series #10 - Criss-Cross Star Quilt Block!!

In this video I show you how to make my Criss-Cross Star Block using
2 1/2" - 3 1/2" - 4 1/2" squares from my scrappy stash baskets and a variety of my Bee Backgrounds prints.
I show you my block in three different sizes so that you can decide which one is best for your stash....or maybe you will make all three like I did:)
I love piecing my easy Criss-Cross Star Block...it's the perfect stash buster for my scrappy squares and I hope that you will too!

So often they only give you one size block and it so hard to figure out how to make them smaller, you make it super easy! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!
