    I can't seem to upload the photo of my alabama star. I will try again later. Could be my lack of computer skills or my lack of good internet. Until I figure it out I will just enjoy everyone elses.

    Paintmejudy, tomilu, your stars are beautiful. Are any of those fabrics going throughout? Iwillquilt, you may just have to resize your picture for a webpage.

    I have to go into the Windows Picture Gallery, then when my pic is up, go into Paint and resize-I do 15%. Took me a while to figure that out, lol.

    The colors, but not necessarily those fabrics. My picture is somewhat washed out, don't know why.

    Thank you tomilu. I will try this. Love the stars so far. It has been a busy week for me and hope to work on my 2nd block this afternoon. After the wonderful grandchildren go home. Love seeing them.

    What fun to see the beautiful blocks you ladies have made so far! I'm making a beach quilt, so it's in blues and browns.

    Here is mine.

    The green background and the dark batik with the flowers will be a constant. I may add a second constant, not sure yet, will work that out as I pick fabrics. I want to do this completely scrappy batiks, except for the green background which I did have to buy. Naturally, when I was looking for fabrics in my stash, there was never enough of what I wanted to use!

    Fabulous background fabric for a beach quilt. Love the footprints in the sand.
