[quote=quilting.addict]Half square triangles, yup!! except for the front star block of course. Easy Easy!! I just laid it out on EQ5 so I would know how many squares to cut. The secret is a really good contrast between the top of the "brick" and the sides. Thanks for the nice words! My neighbor (non-quilter) looks and says, oh how pretty!! Y'all "get it"!! so your comments are so meaningful.

Jeannie, it turned out beautiful. I love the stars fabric and the green border adds a nice bit of pizzazz. You did a wonderful job. You're right...the secret is in the high contrast. You sure got it done in record time. Of course, the hand quilting will take longer but you can do that at your leisure. I'm so glad you finished it and are pleased with the results. Your granddaughter will love it.
