    yes, it took a while to make all those little squares. But, it sure turns out nice. I can’t wait to see how yours turns out

    Glad to hear it takes awhile, Jenny makes it look so easy. After a week of trying I have about 20 blocks all done. Just cut sashing and cornerstones to made a 4x5 block square to see how it looks. Won't be able to work on it for a few more days.

    A beautiful quilt and I love the economy block. Just made a pile of them to use as a border for another quilt, a UFO! But seeing the blocks in your quilt and after watching the tutorial, I am hooked. It will go on my to do list. I have a few jelly rolls that need a good project. This is it for one of them! Thanks for the inspiration.

    I’m a very big fan of Missouri Star - and this is in my list of super quilts. I have found myself (with a helper) in charge of our charity quilt group at one of my quilt guilds and I’m collecting all kinds of patterns that would work for our quilts - we are doing children’s quilts right now and this would be a fun, colorful one in a smaller size.

    Thanks for your picture
