????Yes, No, Maybe????

Buggy Barn sells a pattern for doing the same to a square, maybe after reading those instructions, you could do the same for the star?

YOU ARE MY NEW BEST FRIEND!!!!
THANK YOU...THANK YOU...THANK YOU...

Yes...I can not believe it!!!
You are the best....
This is it!!1

Ok...I got so excited by looking at the design...I didn't even read it...
or really look at it...there are repeated fabric in the stars, and the one I saw had no repeats of fabric...

There are repeats because she only used six layers of fabric, which produced six blocks!

You can use either 11 fabrics and have one block for each fabric that is in the quilt, or you can layer 12 fabrics and not every block will have every fabric! but you will have an even number of blocks for your quilt instead of an odd number!

The more fabrics you add the less pieces are going to be repeated, and if you use the same number of fabrics as you do blocks you won't have any repeats!

*jumping up and down*

As long as you keep them in order and always have a different color at the top of each pile, I swear you'll have 11 different colors in 11 fabric positions with no repeats!! Just keep moving fabrics to the bottom if repeats show up. It solves your problem where the same fabric will appear. :thumbup:

Have you got it figured out now?

Thanks again to everyone...
But I still have the same problem...
How do I shuffle them...
If I just shuffle to the very bottom...I swear..there are repeats in fabric..
There is only one certain order..something like..after the first cut..move the first one to the bottom...after the second cut....move it three from bottom...etc...
Once you have eight fabrics in the block..finding the other three..that are not in that block..that will make the correct cut..is what is driving me crazy...
But thank-you to everyone...

Okay, I've been thinking about this. If you make a cut, shuffle and sew you're not going to shuffle 11 times because there aren't 11 cuts.

You have to cut it all at once. Use freezer paper to make a couple of copies of your pattern and stick it to the top piece of fabric in a couple of stacks. Make all the cuts. Then you pick a different piece of fabric from each section for each block. Several people in my guild did a similar quilt with hearts and that's how it was done.
