Just One Star

Moda is asking quilters to make Just One Star Block. "The challenge is to piece, quilt and bind 100 quilts in 100 days using the Flag of Valor pattern by Minick and Simpson". These quilts will be given to comfort our soldiers through the Semper Fi Fund.
The block is easy and everyone has some blue or red fabric in their stash. The designers of the block are very clever. The outside triangles are oversized, plus they request that you DO NOT trim the block when you are done. If you have ever attempted to put a quilt together from donated blocks, you would know what a nightmare it is to get a bunch of blocks somewhere near the size required. This block would be great for your own group project.

But I would HAVE to trim. Just a little--you know, to square it up. It would drive me nuts otherwise. :)
