    I just found this BOM earlier in the week. I love seeing all these blocks everyone has done. Here is my take on it. I used Batiks for the first time. I love them they are soooo pretty. I was going to make a table runner for a cousins birthday with three of these blocks but I am afraid 3 12 inch blocks might be too big. But here is mine.

    Now that is a stunning block! How lovely the colors are, and the pink batik makes for a striking combination. You definitely have a winner here.

    36 to 40 inches is a good size for a table runner

    Gorgeous choice of colours! Love your block! You could make the blocks smaller 6 " o 9" so that they will fit a table runner? I really do love your colour scheme! :thumbup:

    Your Star block is very striking. I just love how your batik fabric stands out with the black back ground. What a great star!!

    Your star is beautiful, the star material jumps at me!

    Your batik star is crisp, what a beautiful background fabric!
