    Hi everybody! I haven't posted much of my own stuff lately with doing Mom's stuff. I have been so busy that I haven't had much time to sew. But...I did find some time the other night and I sewed together my Downy quilt top. Then last night I started a Carolyn's Star and I finished it this morning. Ahhhhh!
    It's sew good to get to sew!!!

    The Downy quilt is really pretty but I love that star. Is Carolyn's Star the name of the block? I've never seen it before.

    Thank you! Yes, that is the name of the block. It's on Quilter's Cache. Here's a link to it.

    I really like it too. Enjoy!

    Thank you! No, the star isn't paper pieced but the way you make it, you could probably get the points straight anyways.
    I just posted the link to the pattern, just above here. You should check it out. You should probably make one.
