    KalamaQuilts, I bet if you show your block, it will be fine. I have rethought mine over and over. But remember, there will be 50. So if a few are "off" it won't matter.

    Here is my Alabama Block. It did not turn out like I wanted it too, but it is OK I guess. It is 8".

    JeanieG it is beautiful, I love your fabric choice, perfect and you are making small blocks again. After FWS and PC 12 inch blocks seem huge

    Jeanie, I love your block. I wish I'd have done 8" blocks instead of 12". I think finished this quilt will cover my entire living room.
    Ladies, all your blocks are great!

    Each day more great blocks are posted! Keep it up!!

    Jan--have you thought about making different sized blocks and putting them together? Then it wouldn't be so big.

    Jeanie, your block is as close to perfect as it can be I love it!

    Jan, like Rosie you could make two quilts with the Star blocks.
