Default EQ 7 and radiant star

Hi all, I am trying to make a four color radiant star that Eleanor Burns demonstrates in her book. I thought I would scan my fabrics, make the star and plug in my fabrics to see what it might look like. I tried to use the fancy star in the serendipity section but you cant edit the serendipity stuff. EQ 7 has another two stars I can edit but they are 3 colors and 5 colors ...I want to do four and can't figure out how to make the silly thing. Any suggestions?

Use the copy and trace tool. You can import a picture of the block, trace it and covert it to easy draw and edit all you want.

Cool BellaBoo! I will definitely give it a shot. Thanks. Have you heard of those teflon washers some people put in their Bobbin case. I have read that several people do that all the time and they swear by it. I wonder if it helps the Bobbie spin easier. Just wondering!

They are called Bobbin Genies and I use them. They are a preventive so you aren't suppose to notice they are working. I notice when I don't use them though.
