Stars are OK but getting a little boring. I like the idea of houses because you can make churches, stores, schools, factories, lighthouses, roadhouses (saloons for some of us), honky tonks, apartment buildings, movie theaters, etc.
I did not envision a funky anything with this. This is not a swap (at least I didn't think it was). I have found at least half dozen patterns recently and I'm sure there are many more.
It's kind of like doing a quilt with shoes (not really my thing but could be fun). There are a lot of different shoes out there, or vegetables, or birds, or bugs, etc.
