    Totally agree. I had to turn my head to make sure they were still there! ha ha. Is this regularly-pieced or paper pieced? You did a great job.

    Thanks so much for the kind remarks. This is not PP, I struggle with liking PP'ing.Putting blocks on point always brings in a new perspective, and a different look. If you notice in the 4P all the dark squares are running at the same diagonal; they are vertical in the on point pic. I rotated the pic so the darks are horizontal; do you notice a difference? are the stars more noticeable?

    That is so cool, love to see what others do when they get an idea from another member & add their take on it! Wish I had the time to be so creative, regrettably work gets in my way!

    I personally like #2 better than #3 - it just seems to show your work better!
