Thanks for all your advise. You almost have me talked into buying it. But...I just heard back from Animas Quilts and she is going to send me a paper pattern on Sunday when she returns home. So after using the paper template, I may decide to go ahead and buy the ruler. This is a Christmas present for my mom but it's not like I don't have anything else to work on until I get the paper template. It's going on a round table she has in the living room in front of the picture window with an old fashioned lamp on it. I'm leaving off that outside flowered border so it will be the points hanging down around the table. I'm doing the pink version with yellow center in the flowers but no yellow in the star. I will try to post a picture but my camera is new and the computer is old and they don't play well together.lol Thanks again.
