You can set these star blocks on point or in squares , either would look nice. You can copy the stars and enlarge then to suit your purposes, but be careful to stay "in scale" or proportion with the other elements.
Again nice work on a difficult pattern.

A beautiful quilt and I agree with Lori, what she suggested would make a beautiful larger quilt for someonw's bed.

gorgous quilt. If you are willing to put ime & effort into it, repeat all design & colors as close as possible from outer edge of circle out. Or do borders as suggested above.

What an inspiration. I am currently making the same quilt in oriental fabrics of beige, brown, grays and black. Did you find her pattern somewhat a challenge? But, she has such some beautiful patterns. Your quilt is beautiful with gorgeous fabrics. I will post pictures of mine, however, I am slow so it will be some time.
