Block Seven - Virginia Star

I think this is my new all time favorite quilt block. I just love how it looks! This block is easy to cut and sew and can be completed in a very short amount of time. This block uses "flying geese" which are cut from a square (cut the square into quarters). I cut all the pieces for this block over a week ago, but couldn't actually sew it together until today.I can't wait to use this one again!

On a side note, I picked up a nice new iron today at Home Depot (who'd a thunk?!). It was only $6.98 and I couldn't pass up such a bargain! It has a nice weight to it so I don't have to "press" as hard when I'm "pressing" and the plate is self cleaning stainless steel.
