I need any easy star design that i can repeat in different christmas prints for a sampler... any ideas?

Try quilterscache.com. They some wonderful easy star patterns.

how's your little helper doing? My son starts school in september! oh joy!

what about the Friendship star? That goes together quick and easy, and it's cute. :) Would look awesome (IMHO) in a Christmas Sampler quilt.

He is doing good. He starts preschool in August, I'm so going to enjoy the quiet time. :-)

If you like paper piecing -- these are some neat stars

Lucky Stars by Atkinson Designs is very forgiving with points. You'll see plenty of pretty examples if you do a search here.

WOW, new site for me.... looks like some great patterns there!

Thanks for sharing the site. I'm going to give the Birthday Star a go.

Lucky Star is super easy. Here's one I made. I had to add sashing as I didn't have ehough of the print to make more blocks. Was just using up stash for chairty quilts.

Delaware Quilts also has some good star blocks. Probably some are the same as Quilterscache. Here is a link:
