The pentagram quilt was perhaps the fastest I've put a quilt together (2 weeks, start to finish, including the quilting). The worst of it was the pentagrams, which probably added on a week to the time it would have taken otherwise. Those had to be done as fusible appliqué, with tiny black blanket stitches around the edges. Something I've done before on another piece (and would love to try for a repeat of this pattern) would be gold metallic blanket stitches around the edges of the block. It's very subtle, but adds a nice bit of glitter.
