This quilt pattern block is ONE of my favorites and one that I seems to go back to time and time again. It’s a Friendship Star. This is a three inch by three inch finished quilt pattern. See the complete quilt here.
I piece by triangle as I would for a larger quilt pattern block. I piece mine as shown here, and remember to press the pieces and trim as you go.

When sewing the pieces in a smaller quilt pieces, as this quilt pattern is. I do everything just as IF it was a regular size quilt block. I cut with a rotary cutter, sew on my sewing machine, and press. The ONLY thing different is I trim my 1/4 inch seam allowance for just about 1/8 of an inch and press. REMEMBER, to press with a hot iron, UP and DOWN, you do not want to stretch the cotton.
