Christi54, Thanks so much! I don't know how I missed your post, but that may well be what I saw! Even if it's not, that is so beautiful! I will have to go to the tutorial and try to make it. Thanks again for your time and input!

Hi Everyone,
I've been missing from this Board for a while due to family obligations and making more quilts than I know what to do with. I do read through some of the forums, but just haven't contributed lately.
I am hoping that someone might recall seeing a star quilt (I believe it was a Carpenter's Star) a year or so ago (it might even have been in 2011) that looked like it was exploding from the center out. It was one of the most beautiful quilts I've ever seen and I recall showing it to my DH, so I know it exists. The problem is, I can't recall who made it or whether it was a Carpenter's Star at all. It may have been another pattern altogether, but it looked like it was blowing up from the center outward. I believe it went from a yellow center out to darker colors, but my ever worsening case of CRS kicks in and I'm not sure.
If any of you remember the quilt or the person who made it, would you please let me know. I would like to make one similar to it as a Christmas gift and need to see how the colors were coordinated to make it look like that.
Thanks tons!

Wonder if the quilt your looking for is a LONESTAR? Has more "legs" but generally starts with a single color and each additional round changes color/value and often ends with with the beginning color toward the outside rim
