Unser Achteck-Fieber bekommt frischen Sommerwind - mit dem Projekt Summer Spirit kommen begeisterte Handnäherinnen so richtig auf ihre Kosten, egal ob zuhause auf dem Balkon oder im Garten, im Straßencafé oder auf der Urlaubsreise....
When you say "octagon", at some time you will also have to say "lone star"! So the 9th is in fact a Lone Star, set in an octagon and complementing very well all the other star blocks in the "Felicity" sampler quilt.
The 8th Octagonny block is called "Moving Star". Among the Octagonnies, there are quite a few "dynamic" stars and this is one of them.
If you'd like to join us in this happy sew-along, dive into your scrap boxes and make an octagon block every other week. The online class "Octagonny - 8 sides will make you happy" will give you short videos, detailed step by step instructions and all templates in original size to download. Every now and then, we will throw in some specials what you can do with your Octagonnies if you don't want to make a sampler quilt as our Felicity quilt.
We are very excited to announce another partnership with Angelika Steinböck of Quilthouse Purgstall in Austria! She found a really funky alternative colourway for our Octagonnies...
Octagonny - 8 sides will make you happy! This is a new activity here at Quilt around the World which brings you a new block every other week plus several bonus projects which lend themselves extremely well to decorate your home or make beautiful presents for all seasons.

The 7th Octagonny block is called "Shooting Star" because it looks as if a star is exploding...
And here we have the next bonus project for our new sew-along activity Octagonny. This time we took a "wedge" from two of the previously published Octagonny blocks and combined them with a setting square and setting triangles.
