The Lonestar is my absolute favorite. When I hand quilted, I figured there were just to many darn points. But now that I machine piece, and seeing it done this way....I may just get one done one of these days. Thanks for the Tut!

It will be very pretty. I can't wait to see pictures of your star.

Will wait for the finished product and the colors appeal to me.

These were all large scale prints on those sample cards but once cut, they are just color.

Rosy, that is beautiful! Are those fabrics the silky kind? Wasn't that hard to sew?

I love the Lone Star you are making. the 2nd one is absolutely gorgeous. You are so talented and I like your fabrics you used in both.

Oh, I think Lone Stars are beautiful. I'm so glad to get to see yours evolve! Thanks for posting your steps, Rosy!

Your Lone Star is going to be beautiful, can't wait to see the continuation and the finish. Thank you for allowing us to see the method.

As for the one on your bed with the shiny fabric, how beautiful is that! Just delightful! :D
