Thanks, Connie....And now I found another ufo...143 10" squares made up of 71 checkerboard (done), 50 evening stars (done) and 22 star blocks with a small checker board in the middle. Checkerboard centers are done and am making the star points on 18 blocks. Using the no waste FG method for star points. This was inspired by Barbara Brackman's Under Lincoln's Stars. We'll see how long this takes me. I have the backing picked, but plan on putting a row of checkerboards and stars to widen my backing fabric so that will mean making more blocks. I started this more than a couple of years ago from scrap pieces.
