Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Moda Blockheads 5 (Round 2) Block 9 which is a traditional Ohio Star block and a favorite of this week’s featured designer Deb Strain. Keep reading for ideas and suggestions for this week’s block, the pattern link, and for all of the extra resources for this fabulous sew along.
Moda Blockheads 5 (Round 2) Block 9
Block 9 Details
The Ohio Star block is such a favorite of mine. You’ll notice that I used a low-volume floral on white background for my larger block to keep the background from looking too bare. But I did use a tone-on-tone for the background of my smaller block. The pattern is written so that the quarter-square-triangle (hourglass) units are oversized and trimmed down, so you’ll love the accuracy built in to this week’s pattern.
