    When I was working on a log cabin, I also worried that my lights and darks weren't different enough, but when all the blocks were assembled they were fine. I think your stars will also be fine when assembled. I also think that in a quilt that relies on lights and darks for a pattern it is good to have some areas that aren't quite as defined as others. It makes the eye wander around the quilt to assess the pattern. Your quilt is coming along very nicely. It must have taken a while to find all those polka dots.

    I love the dots. It reminds me of the dots of ice cream you get at Hershey Park an amusement park in Hershey, PA. NASA developed it so that the astronauts could eat them. They are small dots of all different colors of ice cream, my kids use to love them.

    That quilt is going to be awesome. Good Job keep up the good work.
