More Jewish Holiday Bling

This quilt is so quick and easy to make. Just sew contrasting 2.5 inch squares on the diagonal to two kitty corners of a 5 inch charm. Trim the points off of the sewn corners and press to the darker fabric. Repeat as many times as you want for the size quilt you want. Arrange the blocks so that the points form a Star of David if you want it to have a Jewish feel. Add a couple of pretty borders and quilt it with stars and spinning dreidels. Actually I make that part sound so easy, but I had Deb do it for me!

Oh and by the way, if you do the math you will realize that you can do this with any size square or charm. Just divide it in half! Sew two 3 inch squares on the diagonal to two kitty corners of a six inch charm. Get it?
