I could order the Stars book but so affraid I'd never get caught up! If I'm not mistaken you have 4 done for this month already.......! I could try!!

Momma K you should jump right in whenever you like. I have only completed two blocks but that is not stopping me. I still pop on, ogle the beautiful blocks, and promise everyone I will complete another one soon! Haha!! There are many of us moving at our own pace and the beauty of this BOW is getting to see what everyone comes up with and sharing. No deadlines - this is supposed to be fun. You should join us - I'll bet you will finish ahead of me LOL!

Early for me -- Here's my California. For only 96 pieces they sure seemed like a lot more.

I'm feeling that 30's vibe Moonwork. Great work.

Well my book has arrived and it is nice to be able to flick through and see the full pattern for all the stars and blocks x 4 as well as seeing them in actual fabric as opposed to the colour print ¼ block in the download. But the download does enable me to just print out the foundation in whatever size I choose. Obviously I needed both.

I wondered about getting the download but I ended up just making copies of the book...don't know if I saved any money but figured I could make the copies as I need them too. I get more from seeing the examples on here than from her book...to me, the ones in the book are kinda funky fabrics for the most part...but that is just my opinion...hey who am I to say funky...I've got dancing bunny couples and cartoon babies on one, lol.

I'm really just a compulsive book collector. I could manage fine with just the download but I WANTED to look at all the pics in the book and when I saw it on sale and with free shipping, how could I resist?
