Both quilts are lovely (and both sets of ankles, too). I think the way you did the corners of the star quilt is really cool - it looks like the corners are folding back into the star, "revealing" a second layer of fabric underneath. Very interesting effect - was this planned, or serendipitous?

The star is my own design. I make them up as I go along. I get an idea and just cut and sew. The corners sort of "evolved. I wanted a cornerstone, but not a solid color. That looked boring. So, I made additional hst's. This is the 3rd "strippy star" (my name for them) quilt I have made. I am writing the pattern to teach at my LQS this summer. With all this possitive feedback, I might try to publish it! (I would just rather be quilting).
