Surprisingly it wasn't hard to do. I was pretty tenuous when I started, but it made sense shortly and then they went together more quickly. I would encourage you go try one. It was actually quite fun.

Wow, that is very pretty!!

Thank you all for the encouraging comments. The colors are actually brighter and richer in tone, but pics don't always post true to color (smile). I appreciate your looking.

Really nice! The border really goes well with the blocks, I really like it!

Perfect points! Very nice work. Is that a dulcimer you are playing?

Wow! Beautiful! You do such nice work.

Really, really nice. I have never attempted one because I was told that when you make one, you will never make another one, that is why it is called 'the lone star'. Maybe
I will put it on my to do list since you didn't think it was that hard.
