Thank you Marlys. I was trying realy hard to not be able to tell what the pattern was, but still using the pattern - does that make sense?? My head is still swimming and my vision stinks! Maybe tomorrow it will be better?
Yes, Marymc - this deadline is the 6th so the next one will start the 7th. It MAY be another kind of star?? With coordinating colors? What do you think?
We will be waiting to see YOUS Kate! Have fun!

Hello,
Thanks for the posting. I love the block. I have been trying to find a pattern that will work well for a baby quilt for my niece(due in Oct) but haven't seen the pattern I want for the fabric I found. This block will make a great baby quilt! Enjoy the Block Challenge. Thanks again.

If you are up for it, how would you like to have a block challenge?? The rules? Do the above block, following the pattern - do just one or, if you want to try another - fine! The only colors you can pick from are off-white, black, pale green, peach and small print brown. You can "tweek" the pattern by putting the lights where the darks are, and vise-versa.
The idea came to me watching F&P Saturday. Lets see how many different varieties we can get using only ONE pattern and just rearranging the colors. Got it? Deadline to post YOUR block or blocks will be ....hm........July 6th! Are ya up to it??

I would love to do this challenge, but I have a back injury and can't do anything at this time. Could you give us a while longer to do this block? Maybe later in July, hopefully I will be back to where I can sew again. Love your idea.

For those of you that said you don't have the colors?? You could use only 2 of the colors listed - you MUST have the basics, right?If you don't have time, we will "catch you" on the next block - out on the 7th of July. Thank you SO MUCH, participators for taking part in this challenge, and we hope that you will be back for the next challenge! If there is alot of interest, we could go and and on with these challenges - it is up to YOU! :lol: :thumbup:
