    Well, it surely is beautiful. I'd continue making stars to get the size you want.

    Beautiful quilt ... you've done such a fabulous job on it, I would opt to make it bigger by making more stars. Please give us an update when you have completed the quilt. I too love the civil war reproduction fabrics and grew up in an old farmhouse in upstate New York that was the civil war era. I loved that house. Thank you for sharing your beautiful quilt.

    I'm with the majority here. Im always increasing quilts, especially those that are almost big enough, to fit the bed. I think quilts displayed on a bed are the best. I would increase with extra star blocks. I have this pattern on my bucket list. By the way, love your fabric choices. I love the traditional look to this quilt.

    I love that quilt. If it were mine I would keep making star blocks until I got to the size I needed to fit the bed.

    I have added a row of blocks top and bottom to make a quilt rectangular instead of squarish. It is funny how the eye/mind deceives and accepts that it is correct, if that makes sense. I agree with the others, you will always regret it.
