I have to tell all of you ladies that your blocks are wonderful. I'm sorry I didn't join in this adventure. The time was not right for me but I do plan on getting the book and starting in on these stars in Jan. 2013. You all have inspired me. Thanks.

I am working on putting my blocks together. All my blocks are 8.5 inch. I am trying to put them on point. First time doing a quilt that way and it is a little challenging. I had to do 60 blocks to make my king size quilt.

I am limited on my internet. So I was unable to post each picture as I made them. Sorry.

Absolutely no need to be sorry. We are happy to see them now.

Carolyn, your quilt is beautiful. Great idea to put them on-point. This is definitely a keeper!

Very pretty, Mona Lisa!! Doesn't it feel great to finish? Well, almost, except for assembly, removing paper, picking up confetti a thousand times and quilting!! LOL :)

I'm afraid all these blocks will just be stored away in a box. I hate quilting. I just like making blocks..........

What truly wonderful job, Nicky. Wish I had the will to make a quilt from my blocks. Maybe I'll donate them to a charity...................
