I think there isn't enouth value contrast between the light triangle and the background.

I haven't made this, so I cound be totally off base. I think the center star looks more like a leMoyne star?

D.Hanson. Your #18 scrappy looks great. That's one of my favorites as far as how the blocks went together.

Klaws, Glad things are coming together. Moving doesn't sound like much fun and I'm going to have to do it myself in a few years. Any words of wisdom for the process?

Angelia, Nice!! Very fallish looking. Makes me want to get busy.

dd, I haven't actually sewn any together wrong but I have pondered and pondered and looked at my cheat-sheet every time I make a block. Partly because I have my star pinwheels going in the opposite direction of the other pinwheels.

Susie, that is so beautiful. It looks like on the computer that the there isn't enough contrast between the light and the background but that may be my computer. BUT, I think you have switched your star points so that the white in the pinwheel doesn't line up with the white of the point. That would make them show up more. IMHO. Maybe you intended them that way, in which case I apologize, and applaud your creativity.

Oh my gosh, whitepine, you're right! I royally screwed this up!!!!!!!!!!! I am really good at that though so I'm not really surprised.
This afternoon I took off all the really light triangles and will replace them.Now I'm wondering if that is a mistake too! Good thing I only made one finished block.
Thank you so much!!!
Oh and I'm not that creative haha

Thanks, Mary. Not sure what I'm going to do. I love the one above it. The pinwheels are clearly defined.

Oh yes, whitepine my pinwheels are backwards too! I have to post from my phone because my computer is being looked at, but I can't figure out how to post a picture from my phone.

Nice! I think your light points just didn't have enough contrast, even if they had been in the right place.
