Ribbon Star

 There are more than one block design called the ribbon star.  This one is a variation of the sawtooth star that uses a square-in-a-square for the centre of the block.

The centre can be constructed from four half square triangles back to back or from a square in a square block formed by adding half triangles to the sides of a square.

this version by Teresa Downunder uses four HST's

The carnaby street free pattern uses the ribbon star as an alternate block

This block is based upon a 4x4 grid - click here for other 4x4 blocks
