Subcut 2 squares 8" for the corner triangles, cut once on the diagonal.
• Main, Binding: Cut 4 strips 3⅜" × WOF. Subcut 48 squares 3⅜" for the half-square triangles. Cut 6 strips 2½" × WOF. Join into one 242" strip.

Putting it together

1. Make 12 Star of Virginia blocks, 10" finished (10½" with seam allowance). That takes 96 half-square triangles and 48 half-square triangles.
2. Lay the blocks on point in diagonal rows, with plain setting squares between them, setting triangles along the sides and corner triangles at the corners. Sew each diagonal row, then join the rows.
3. Add the 4" border: measure through the middle of the quilt, sew strips to the sides first, then to the top and bottom.
4. Layer the backing (58.42640687119285" × 72.5685424949238"), batting and top, quilt, and trim. Join the binding strips end to end, press them in half lengthwise and sew to the front.
