    Blocks are beautiful. Now I am really intimidated.

    Wowzer, those are both beautiful. Upon first glance this star intimidated me a little, but when I looked at the templates, I realized it wasn't going to be as difficult as I imagined. :) Now to pick out which of my B&W fabrics I want to us and get started!

    Unfortunately, I think I have to clean the house first...>_

    Don't be intimidated. It is not a hard block at all, just looks that way.

I have always hated removing the paper, and with the freezer paper method you don't have to. And, you don't even have to use freezer paper. You can just pin your pattern to the first piece of fabric and away you go. I think this is a beautiful, beautiful star.
    JudyG..........I love your pp'ing Stars for Feb 15th!! :D You have done a marvelous job making them. I can't wait to start on mine. Wish me luck!!

    Thanks, Sulabug. This was a fun star to work on. I was a little intimidated when I saw the picture, but when you start working with the template, it's really quite simple. I do wish you luck, but I know you won't need it. I've seen your work, and it's beautiful.

    Now I have to get busy on that Farmhouse - talk about intimidating. :roll:

    I will just look with awe for now. I am tackling triangles and pulling my hair out. These points look harder.

    Absolutely gorgeous, PokerDiva. I love your colors (as you can see from mine, I love blue). Didn't take you any time at all. Good job!
