The first round for the Stay At Home Round Robin was released on Wednesday. Brenda of Songbird Designs is hosting the first round. She picked hourglass as the block. She linked to Missouri Star Quilts tutorial on how to make hourglass blocks using 4 patches here. I followed the tutorial except that I started with 4 inch cut squares and trimmed my hourglass blocks to 4.5 inches square.
Why?
Because I turned my hourglass blocks into Ohio Stars!
Sharing today with Brenda at Songbird Designs: SAHRR Round 1.

Very nice!
Those turned out nicely! I like the fabric you used for the center square, too. I've been working on hourglass blocks today, but not quite ready to share!
Love your Ohio Stars! The fabrics are really pretty - I zoomed in to see those patriotic centers. :)
Ohio Stars is one of my favorites...because I am from Ohio? Love that bright red. And I LOVE that you are making your RR in rows! Very clever!
Clever!
Very clever, you! I like it!
They look great!
I also love the idea of a row quilt, and these Ohio Stars will be a great addition to your Barn Star row. Are you doing all stars in this quilt? It will be fun to watch it take shape!
I love Ohio Stars; well, I am from Ohio. But they turned out awesome.
Ohio Stars and yours looks great!
These are a wonderful use of the hour glass block :)
Ohio Stars are among my favorite blocks! Yours look great!
