Oh, I changed the center a bit.
I love the fussy cut center candi! Great looking block.

I have been gone for a couple of weeks and when I finally got caught up with this thread, what a gorgeous bunch of blocks you have all done this month. It is absolutely amazing to me how they all turn out so different and yet are all so beautiful. I have loved seeing the posts where all six stars are together. We are going to have some beautiful quilts from this BOM. Now I need to get busy and get mine done and get caught up.

Beautiful blocks, folks. I've definitely enjoyed seeing all the variations. Finally started on mine (I know - horribly late!). Got the center finished, but still have a lot ahead of me.

For those keeping up with my Black and White theme, I've added a touch of red to this one. Hopefully I'll get this finished sometime soon so I can post pics.

Don't worry gals - I'm just as far behind as you are...but it's still fun being a part of the BOM

Alrighty! I got started today, and just couldn't stop without finishing. This was actually much more difficult than I had thought it would be. I mean, the paper piecing was easy - but putting it together STRAIGHT with the other pieces I found difficult. Cut the points off of most of these by accident. Oh well!

Anyway, just glad to have this one done. Although it ended up considerably smaller than my other blocks (didn't print right, I imagine) - so I figure eventually I'll have to give it a border or something to make it 12".

I love the black and white with the burgundy. Very striking! You are going to end up with a gorgeous quilt!
