    The document provides instructions for constructing a scrappy quilt using star blocks of different sizes. Different colored prints are used for each block and the blocks are arranged diagonally across the quilt for visual interest.

    There are three different sized star blocks - large, medium, and small. Each block is constructed by sewing pieced rectangles to cream solid squares and adding a center square. The pieced rectangles are made by sewing colored prints to cream solid strips.

    The blocks are assembled into rows with 7 blocks each. The blocks are positioned so that the stars form diagonal rows across the finished quilt. The rows are sewn together.
