Quick and easy "ITH" Stitched
blocks for hoops 8x8 or larger
This month is my take on the Carpenter’s Star, done with all stitching. I’ve done four variations. The first is a two-color, the second is eight-color with light and dark sides, the third is a pinwheel with only the dark side; all three are standard 8” blocks. The fourth block is the eight-color with ¼ of the total block made with one 8” block. You can use this design with only two colors also. The complete four-block star is 15.6” square. There is also a border and a corner.

Hi I'm PJ
Since 2006 I’ve been a teacher at Montavilla Sewing Centers in the Portland Metro area. I design, produce and teach the monthly projects for Babylock Serger Club, Janome, BabyLock and Brother Machine Embroidery Club, and 8” Block of the month Club.
I have a lot of fun creating projects, designs, and patterns that incorporate techniques and products to encourage the students to get the most out of their Sergers or Embroidery Machines.
