Heat strawberries and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat until they start to release their juices, about 3-5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low. Gradually whisk in the cornstarch. Simmer the berries until the juices thicken, approximately 3-5 minutes.

Roll out each pie crust until it is about 1/8-inch thick and 12-inches in diameter. Using a 3.5-inch star-shaped cookie cutter, cut the dough into 32 star shapes.

Carefully spoon one tablespoon of blueberry filling into the center of 8 pie crust stars. Repeat with the strawberry filling.

Fill the pies

Gently place the remaining pie crust stars over the top of the filling. Dip the tines of a fork in flour and carefully seal all the edges of the pies. Place the pies in the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
