I unravel the mystery of folding fabric into a Scandinavian Star Ornamnent in this video.
They are fun gifts for quilters or anyone who sews, especially if you make them from their favorite fabric or color, or both!
Thank you for watching! If you like what you see I'd love a "Thumbs Up."

Ok who is old enough here to remember doing this with gum wrappers? We use to fold the paper and foil wrappers on a stick of gum and we use to make stars and Jacob ladder bracelets. We use to save all the wrappers in packs of gum just so we could make stuff. Now we are doing it with fabric....👍

@apylinski Год назад

I remember doing those!

@lindarider7873 Год назад

I remember gum wrapper art. 😄

@sewforlife5728 Год назад

@@apylinski yeah👍 me and my friend got so into it. We were saving all kinds of wrappers and different colors and the foil made cool looking stuff. We use to make star earrings with wire hooks..lol

@sisterchicksquilting Год назад

What a fun memory 😊. I remember the JL bracelets but not the stars. Fabric is more fun for me now. Thanks for watching my channel😊‼️

We used to make love chains with this method. Supposedly you take one chain off for every kiss you shared with someone you liked! I made mine several feet long, but never kissed anyone. I was only about 12 years old.

@allysonashley8596 8 месяцев назад

Do you think it would work using my grandparents clothes?? I want to make gifts for everyone using clothes… this was such a helpful video….

@sisterchicksquilting 8 месяцев назад

I think so. I would starch the clothing before folding and not use any polyester that would take a crease. Good luck and thanks for watching my channel😊❤️🐥

Is there a reason you don't start with shorter strips? Great video!

@sisterchicksquilting 2 года назад

That is how I was taught so I've never tyhought about it until you mentioned it, then a couple of times I've made them a tad too short and ther'es nothing left to do the final tuck in. Thanks for watching!!!

@sandycampbell6600 Год назад

For the other Stars, what are the measurements for the small & medium-sized stars? Have you tried making these Stars with paper? How do you attach your cords? Thanks for sharing!

@sisterchicksquilting Год назад

The strips on the smaller stars are 4" folded to a 1" wide strip the large gold one uses a 6" wide strip folded to a 1 1/2" strip. As for the leagth?!?!? I jsut make em" long. I hope this helps and happy star making! Thanks for watching my channel!

@nancyyetter7044 6 месяцев назад

Can somebody tell me the dimensions of the larger star?

@wolfwarfare1 Год назад

question:: when I'm first laying out the strips in the box shape, does the double folded edge go on the inside, or does it matter?

@debgraziano1771 Год назад

Doesn't matter but looks better with folds to the inside

@sisterchicksquilting Год назад

It doesn’t matter, enjoy making them 😊

@MawPawsarksanctuary Год назад

i cant use spray starch i am allergic to chemicals, is there something else to use for stiffening?

@sisterchicksquilting Год назад

I use a homemade quilting spray made from vodka and distilled water. It’s similar to best press. You can find the recipe online. You might try that. Thank you for watching my channel😊‼️

@patriciahandy8447 9 месяцев назад

My stars are not folding and laying flat. Seems like my fabric is to thick.

@sisterchicksquilting 9 месяцев назад

Could be, I press with a hot iron to get the perfect golds. Have you tried that?

I'm very sorry, but this is a German Star or Froebel Star. Froebel was the men who founded the very first kindergarte in the world in the middle of the 19th century in Germany Thüringen. This star is very well known here in Germany. Many greetings ❤❤

About how big is the finished star?

@sisterchicksquilting 2 года назад

The Christmas fabric one is 4.5" by 4.5", if you use the measurements in the video. The size can be changed by making wider fabric strips. Thanks for watching!
