Y-Seams, y-not? Never fear, Sam is here!

Y-seams, to be or not to be? Lucky for you, it doesn’t matter! Join Sam Hunter as she guides you through how to make her Big Star Braid Quilt with or without y-seams. If you love the way this star looks, but don’t love the way y-seams come together, don’t give up hope yet! The Big Star Braid Quilt instructions have both y-seam and non-y-seam construction methods. You’ll learn about each method and decide which works best for you and your chosen background fabric.

Sam doesn’t stop spilling the beans with y-seam secrets. Let her show you how to play with fabric values to make the Big Star Braid Quilt spin and glow! Want to know an even better reason to learn how to make this quilt? No templates are needed because you do all your cutting of diamonds from strips! When finished, your quilt size will be approximately 54’’ x 74’’. This is a great lap or snuggle size.
