You would end up with concentric echos around that one star and as you got further out, your echoed line would run off the edge of the quilt, so you wouldn’t have to worry about the binding interfering with a pattern. Also it would have the effect of being an all over texture that would reinforce the shape of the main star and also the spiraling out effect of the pieced pattern without overwhelming the rest of your lovely piecing.
