Lovely! Will you do an outer border in the same red to tie it in? I really love that block!

That's gorgeous! I love the pop of red you added.

My first quilt was a Hunter's Star. I paper-pieced it and quilted it by check. When I picked it up from the quilter, I mentioned that it was my first, and the ladies at the shop were flabbergasted because all my points matched. Gotta love paper piecing!

Your points are perfect and I love your fabric. You should definitely do a whole quilt!

This one block is for a charity block drive but I do plan to make a whole quilt now that I see how easy the block was to make using Roolen's method (see the link on my first post). I'm so excited about how it turned out. I think it's one of my prettiest blocks I've ever made. I can't quit looking at it on my design wall.
