It will be approximately 76X84 inches when finished.

Thanks, Suz! I will check them out.

The arrows definitely motivate me. I'm trying to make at least 3 star blocks per day. There are 28 of them!

Can't wait to see it finished. Someday I'd like to do one. Have to find the time.

I just learned how to do the Hunters star. I made a scrappy one that was 7" square and had 60 pieces of fabric in it. However mine is not perfect. Yours look so good.
