Xmas folded stars

At our workshop night this month we made folded Christmas Stars. Once you got your head around how to start them they went together quickly. I think it only took about 20 minutes to make the second one...
These folded stars are just gorgeous...

Then on to some more Splendid Sampler blocks. I love how this block has turned out. I added the tea bag because I am into drinking peppermint tea now. So it goes together well with the beautiful green..

What lovely blocks Jo and your folded stars are perfect, they look as though they may take quite a lot of fabric but such a pretty decoration.

Love those folded stars!! Many years ago (before I was a quilter) I made some with ribbon. I'd like to make some of the fabric version this year for my sewing themed Christmas tree - thanks for the reminder :)
