Checkerboard 60 Technique Sheet

We love fancy diamonds and bet you do too, so thought we would add them to our Star 60 units. You can make this variation in 17 unit sizes, from 2” up to 18” in 1” increments. If you are making those units into stars, that would be 4” to 36” stars in 2” increments. This technique is a bit of a challenge but what a result!

Capped 60 Technique Sheet

We love using this simple unit to add additional interest to Star 60 designs. This is a great, easy to construct, basic unit that we are using more and more as we continue to work with the Star 60® tool. The unit you make with this technique sheet is sized the same way as the Star 60 unit, so if you want your Capped 60 unit to match up with a 5” Star 60 unit, you’d make a 5” Capped 60 unit.
