    It looks great. Add some borders. You can do a border top and bottom only to make it a rectangle and then add a border or two on all four sides and it will be larger faster. The fabrics are great colors.

    Absolutely beautiful, love the colors you used. Adding more borders will get it to the size you want. Wonderful work, be sure to show it when it is finished.

    Thank you all for your comments. If I did not work full time, this quilt would be done now. To me this is very easy so far, 3 different size squares, cut them in half diagonally to make half-square triangles, assembly and sew away. The top can be done in one day. The name of the pattern is "One Block Star" from one of Fons and Porter 2010 magazines. Hope this answered all your questions. I love making stars and have notice I have improved every time I work on quilts - even my hubby says it also. AND you keep me motivated - trying new patterns and working on my UFOs.
