Ruth has reminded me that it is my turn to offer a block. Guess I was reading the list wrong. :oops:
Anyway here are two that I had fun with.

The first is Diamond Star and is much easier than it looks.

If you are not too overwhelmed with Christmas quilting, then here's one for the season - Santa's Face

Happy quilting ladies :D

Actually, your name was January 15, so you didn't miss a thing! But thanks so much for two fun blocks on the spur of the moment! I want to try both!

Your quilt is just beautiful! That star pattern makes a stunning quilt and your work is outstanding. I'm sure your DD loves it.

Thanks for the pattern! I am going to start trying to make this. Maybe this will be the boost of inspiration I need to get me off my sewing machine chair.....
