    Some blocks have many names - some names have many blocks.

    It can get confusing.

    That's why it's helpful to have a picture or drawing of whatever when one is describing a block.

    It sounds like you really want to know the difference, so I am sending you a private message with explanations of the differences in the construction of an ohio star and an eight-pointed star. I hope it helps.

    If it looks like an Ohio Star, no matter which way you turn it, and it smells like an Ohio Star, it must be an Ohio Star

    I see the difference in the hour glass versus the solid points. Good examples Kathy T. Either way, it is really cute!~
