    Really nice! Did you use a diamond shape for the stars?

    She doesn't remember the name of it. She saw it in a book one time back in the late 80's or early 90's.

    I think it is called the LeMoyne Star.

    Here are directions from Simply Quilts and shows how they used the diamond shapes.
