Print on fabric for these patriotic stars and have some fun getting better results than with acrylic templates.
Piece by hand or by machine or a bit of both (hybrid).
Description
5-Pointed Star 4 inch can be sewn with a combination of hand or machine piecing, although I normally sew this small size by hand. Printing the shapes on fabric is much better than using templates and there are TWO methods of fussy cutting.

Basic shapes for 5-Pointed Star 4 inch PLUS Bonus Shapes
I included the half kite, a pentagon, a triangle, the quarter background and a 4 inch square with appliqué for even more design and sewing options.
After posting photos of some of my 5-pointed stars on Facebook, quilters asked me to finish the shape collection as quickly as possible, so this shape collection relies on instructions which are already on the website, like rotary cutting curves, hand piecing curves, fussy cutting, hybrid piecing, circling the intersection and more. Please check this page again for updates under the tabs (above).

There’s something indescribably wonderful about 5-pointed stars and now, thanks to this collection, I can make them in a wild variety of fabrics and looks and get perfect points and curves every time! The wonderful sharp points are complimented so perfectly by the curves! Love, love, love this collection. I wish I could give it multiples of 5 stars!!!
