So beautiful, I am envious! I think a solid border with a star in each corner.

Most everyone else seems to see Christmas when they look at your block, but I see a southwestern theme. It reminds me of the decoration on those string ties. Maybe you could add on to it in sand tones and turquois to create a desert quilt.

Whatever you do with it, it deserves a life. That is one beautiful block.

You could put some tiny blocks with it and make a small lap quilt.

I just love your block!! :D It seems
that there are many ways you could
use it. Depending on weather you
want a wall hanging or a quilt top.
Good Luck finishing it. I will be watching
to see your progress.
:D :D :D :D :D

Norbana, what a beautiful block I love it, it deserves a wonderful border. i think I wouldhave to make it into a quilt regardless of how long it took, I loved Amma idea she showed.

If you Google Lone star you will get some beautiful quilt ideas.

Don't be sorry amma, I love what you came up with. I'm just not sure I could pull that off.
