Here are all my stars to date. I've finally got the hang of mitered binding (see Alaska Star). Still not to sure about quilting them. I do SITD or something like it. I wish I was ready for FMQ. All my blocks are being used as mug rugs. That's because my first star came out really small compared to the correct size.
Star-Jan, came out too small to use for quilt. Decided to use it for a mug rug.

Star-Feb I love paper piecing. It looks so good when it's done. This is my daughter's mug rug.

Stars-Mar This is the one I made for my son-in-law. He really likes black and white.
