You can use any colors you want, but I would avoid FQ colors that closely match the background because they will get lost when those are used for the star points. I've had a couple that I've swapped out at the last minute because there wasn't enough contrast.

Love your star quilts! Your colors work well!
and may i say, yours is beautiful,on your avitar!
Thanks! Here are the others I've made. Enjoy!
