I do that to, but with me new to quilting, I wanna make sure I know what I'm doing. I love sample blocks.

I'm not a pro, but I like it the way it is. I don't see anything wrong

You can use the ones you have as a center medallion. There is another star pattern I know of that will work, too - let me see if I can find it.
