Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Moda Blockheads 5 Block 25, the Bordered Star. This block ended up being a real favorite. And I was super excited to be able to use an orphan block for the center of my 12″ block. Keep reading for all of the details and the link to this week’s pattern.
Moda Blockheads 5 Block 25
Block 25 Details and Tips
First, I was super excited to see the design for this week’s block from Corey of Coriander Quilts. Adding the strip-pieced details to the star point sections was so much fun! Find a few of the tips I thought of while sewing below:
- The center square is perfect for a large or feature fabric such as the fun floral from Laguna Sunrise that I used in the center of my smaller block.
- A 6″ finished block is perfect for the center of the 12″ block. I happened to have the churn dash block pictured left over from a class project. (Find a PDF to make the churn dash block shown in my 12″ block center here–use the 6″ size).
- I cut my strips for the bordered units a little longer than the pattern required. This allowed me to trim them to the perfect length before assembling my block.

Hi Sherri, I just want to tell you how grateful I am that Strawberry lemonade is being reprinted. You have such beautiful quilts and your current ones are made with Strawberry lemonade and just won’t look as amazing in another fabric collection. So Thank you again that I will have the opportunity to make a couple of your quilts and maybe just maybe they will look as pretty as yours because I get the pleasure of using Strawberry lemonade.
