    After being busy with mystery #9 and planning mystery #10 (stars 3/28, another scrappy) haven't visited #8 in a while. Beautiful quilts being shown, love them all, and you must be proud of your efforts. Go team, go!!!

    Honchey I had to lay mine out like on a design wall to understand. The corners were still messed up though. I had already cut my corner pieces so I had to cut an extra 2.5" piece to put the star point on. I could have just cut one piece 3.5x5.5". I wanted my corner to match the next border piece. Each piece is different. Hope that helps.

    I don't find your quilt ugly...it is just very guy looking. I know a man in your family would probably love it.

    I finally finished my #8 quilt. I didn't use the stars just plain blocks. I think it turned out really nice.

    KLAWS - lovely arrangement and colours. Even though your sashing is scrappy it doesn't "feel" too scrappy and brings the blocks together nicely.
