I had so much fun making "Anita's Arrowhead" blocks that I put in a request for Santa for Anita Grossman Soloman's book 'Rotary Cutter Revolution' :) After all the festivities, had a chance to get to some quilting today.

Here is a table runner in one of my favourite colourways (fall!) using Anita's "XCentric" blocks. I had some strip sets already prepared from another project, so used those instead of striped fabric.

The Spinning Strata Star is inspired from all the beautiful ones I saw here on the QB - just used your examples to build my own - likely I didn't find the easiest method, but it did go together pretty well, I'm happy with them :)

I bought this pattern and keep opening it up and puzzling about just how it goes together. Must just have to begin one step at a time? Any hints? Yours is beautiful.

The spinning stars are great, especially the second one.

Wow, now this just sings! what is the dimensions of the table topper? That is darling.

The Strata Stars ended up 42" tip to tip, the XCentric Block runner is 17" high x 53" long. Kind of odd measurements, I am just playing :)

Not sure which one you're asking about? I only had the pattern for the XCentric blocks, just went by pix posted here for the spinning strata stars.

Thanks for your kind comments!

PS: The last photo (earth tones) fabrics are from Connecting Thread's "Aqua Terra" line.
