October 6 ~ Handmade Holiday Inspiration
Enjoy some Handmade Holiday inspiration!…

Modular Star by Kerry, Kid Giddy
Kerry’s tutorial for her Modular Star features a die cutting machine, but if you scroll down in the link she has instructions for using basic triangle shapes. If you have triangles with two sides the same length you can make Kerry’s fun design! You could make some really festive Modular Stars…

That’s really cute, though it looks super complicated. I’ll have to check it out, though, b/c I have a LOT of small scraps that would be perfect for making those little triangles!
Awesome stash buster and gift giving all in one! Great tutorial!
Wow, that looks complicated, but I can’t wait to give it a try!
I love this project! I can think of a couple of little people in my life who would love it!

Wow, those look fun and not too hard to attempt! I’m loving the daily holiday inspiration, thank you!
i LOVE the modular star! I think i’ll have to try and spit one out today. Im on a cloth toy making spree for my 7 month old daughter, Alice. I would loovvveeee to win that snazzy Everything Alice book… seeing as I’m a total Alice lover. Have a great week and keep on sewin on, mamas!
I’ve been looking for a pattern for these for AGES!!! Yay! Thank you so much!
I can imagine some very pretty holiday stars . . .
Wow love this. I think this one might need to wait until I have more time and more patience. And one of those cutting machines.
This is so pretty!
This is incredible, although it makes me a little nervous to try it but what’s better than a challenge. Thanks for sharing! It’s super cute!
Very nice. And it would be a good toy for my little girl, too!

I so want this book! Thanks for an amazing giveaway
Wonderful project. Thanks for the chance to win the book.
Awesome star! I’ll have to try it out with my scraps
That’s cool – what a great toy for a little one.
This is a fantastic project! I love the bright colored fabrics. What a cool toy!
My kids saw this post as I was looking it over and they want to give it a try too!
This looks like a wonderful tv project, things to do in front of the tv
This would make a great baby gift for someone born during the holidays. And I have just such a baby in mind… Thanks!
Goodness, I think this would take me forever to make!
Thanks for the chance, great project!
oooh. I love this star, Thanks for the giveaway!
I want to make some of these in Christmas fabrics for holiday decorations.
This is awesome. It would be great to put a squeaker inside too for babies. Thank you.
That’s really pretty! Thanks!
Wow I love the look of this! Looks challenging but I’m tempted to give it a go. Thanks for the link.
That star is amazing – i bet it would be lovely in flannels for a little one. (or in all sorts of colours just for me!)
If only I had a baby to make this for. My dogs would tear it to shreads.
Love it. Must give it a go.
I love doing origami stars like this, why didn’t I ever think to make one in fabric?? My AccuQuilt Go Baby just arrived a few days ago and I happen to have a triangle die…I’m sensing that I might have to make me one of these stars.
Cute! Looks beyond me….but I may ty it!
Very cute!
Beautiful baby gift….
thanks for sharing your tutorial !
i can’t wait to try making that star for my 4-month-old since he’s just getting interested in toys
Looks like there was a meaning to me buying a triangle ruler yesterday! Holy cow, that star is smokin’ hot!
That modular star is fabulous! Thanks for the chance to win!
Wow! I’ve always wanted to make one of these!
This looks neat but possibly complicated. I’m off to read the how to.
Oh my gosh I love this so, so much!
So fun!
Seems like everywhere I look, there is another reason to wish for a Go cutter…
can’t have enough sewing books… right??!?! this star looks awesome. i’m going to have fun with it
Super cool!
Wow! I love the star and the book looks great!
What a nice idea. I’m expecting a baby so I’m going to make this as a baby toy!
The modular star is just fantastic. As a maths teacher I am now thinking of other shapes I can create.
Great fun stocking stuffers for the kids!
This is really cute!
So cute! I have a small collection of metal and glass stars hanging in my living room, so this would be a great addition.
This looks super cute – I can just feel those squishy points… what a fun toy!
Hmm…my son will love it!! TQ..
OOhhh!!! I like this!!!! I’ve GOT to make one!
Wow! This is awesome! Makes me wish I had a die cutting machine – that’s a lot of triangles to cut!
This star is beautiful! I don’t know that I am up for it though. :/ Maybe this can be a dreary winter day project after the holidays.
This is very cute – also looks challenging to make
cute project, thanks.
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing!
I’m off to check out this tutorial! How cute!
