Quilt Blocks and a Hotpad done!
#12
*falls off chair in excitement*
Last night I was looking through my cabinet and came across a pack of charm (?) squares I bought ages ago that I had forgotten I had. They're all 5" square, and they're all dark blues. Not sure why I bought them, I like much lighter and brighter colours. But they were in my stash and I'm thinking "what on earth am I going to do with these, they're ugly!"
But your blocks Rhonda, look awesome! The white with the darks is perfect, and I love repeating patterns like that. I now have an idea on what to do with those ugly little squares, thank you! :-)

It really is an easy block to do. But it is a very satisfying one to make. I like optical illusions and I like secondary designs which are sort of like illusions. I love the figure 8 design behind (or around depending on your view)the stars.
I call this block Rolling Stars but I know it probably has other names. They all seem to have.
