Only problem is now I have to wait a couple weeks for the next one. Maybe I&#8217;ll keep up momentum by trying some of the 6 inch blocks, as each pattern comes with templates and a cutting guide for both 12&#8243; finished and 6&#8243; finished blocks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The March block for the Lucky Stars club is a ninja star!
