Layer Cake Stars, finished!
 

I posted this last month as a wip, wasn't sure how I was going to put the blocks together, but I was having fun making them from a layer cake that I bought a while back from Connecting Threads. I decided on this simple on point setting because the blocks are so busy and colorful that I didn't feel like they needed much in the way of borders, etc.
The star points on the blocks are folded, not pieced, which I really like, mostly because it made the blocks go together really quickly and easily. But when it came right down to it, I didn't like them flapping in the wind, so I quilted them down with a free motion wavy stitch. It suits my inner ocd.

What a pretty quilt!

I like it! Interesting technique you described, I too am curious as to where you found it. Are the points folded like prarie points? I am always intrigued by Prairie Points but wonder how they look after the quilt has been laundered. I just imagine them getting all wrinkled and laying every which way but flat! LOL So I would have to agree with your inner OCD about quilting those points down. At the very least I would tack them down.

Very pretty quilt, and the colors are great.

I love stars! And this one is wonderful!

A bright, cheery, very pretty quilt. Like it lots.

Really pretty quilt, nice work, I like how you set the blocks on point.

This is a lovely quilt.
