Thanks for sending the pattern. I have started my block to send you in return. I decided to do a red, white and blue colorways - I thought there would be enough distinction between the white in the background, and the white with silver in the star, but there isn't, so I am planning to outline the white of the star in the blue with a machine stitch (as shown in the photo). If anyone is still waiting for their pattern, look in your spam folder, as I found mine there. I guess sometimes when people send out a bunch of one thing, the spamguard treats it as spam. Anyway, it's a great pattern, and I am absolutely amazed that Candlequilter designed this paperpieced version herself!!!
