that is a great job. the only thing that I would have done diff. would have been to fussy cut the flowers maybe. but I think that it looks great the way that it is. and if you square it up it will look right. you just have to make sure the points are 1/4" from the edge at the least.

I think it is a very pretty block. Who says that you, the creator, wants the points to go to the very edge when it is sewn in? I have seen "floating" star blocks where the stars float rather than meet the seams. I like those, cause I always seem to chop off the points... :-(

I really think your block is lovely. I would send it off. Good job.

I am also new (1yr) I think its great and nice colors

You did a perfect job on this block! I would be happy to be the recipient of this block :D:D:D

Very pretty colors. Trim your block to leave 1/4 inch seam allowance and it will look correct. :-)
