A method of forming a fabric block that depicts an eight-point star by using only square-shaped and rectangular-shaped pieces of fabric. A square-shaped piece of fabric is sewn to a first rectangular-shaped piece of fabric and this combination is sewn to a second rectangular shaped piece of fabric to form a square-shaped fabric segment that is sewn to a second square-shaped fabric segment to form a square-shaped quarter portion depicting two points of the star. The four square-shaped quarter portions are sewn together resulting in a square-shaped fabric block depicting an eight-point star. This method overcomes the challenges and difficulties encountered when attempting to make an eight-point star design from diamond, triangle, and square geometric shapes.
