I know want you mean Melissa. I want one of all of them too! :lol: :lol: :lol:

They are all so pretty!!!

I have 5 done need to finish this 12. Maybe.... I can do a second 12. But that just makes more blocks to want one of. LOL

I am going to try to do a second set. I want to use them to make a quilt for my quest bed. I think it will make a great conversation piece. :D

Ok. Sat down today with my fabric and pattern and put together the star block I had selected. It was in the new Fons and Porter magazine. Finished it and it is 14.5 not 12.5. Oh well, it will make a great quilt later and I'm back to the drawing board.

Pattern says it's a 12 inch block. Oh well, I like it anyway.

Well, I was going to say, check your seam allowances,, but two inches is a bit too much to be that..

Its a beautiful block, would you like me to resize the cutting directions for you? I would be happy to give it a try...


Well, I just noticed that it is the same as the block in my Avatar, except the center square..

I'm auditioning stars for my blue/white star exchange. I'm using the fabrics for my Row Robin, so am making stars for that also.

Here is star #1

Here is first star for RowRobin-Christmas blocks, maybe my blue/white???

Purple I always look first and read after - I thought maybe you were color-blind!! LOL I like your block though. It will be nice in your Christmas row robin.

OK. Here is another block I am making (being the other block was to big). It's not as fancy as some. I have to admit I am intimidated by the talent I see here. Anyway, be kind, here is a simple star block.

A simpler block, but a least it's the right size.
