    Very nice! Love the colours!

    One of my favourite colours!! RED! gorgeous. Say I'm biased if you like cos it won't matter one bit! :lol: :lol: :lol:
    Thanks. I am going to do all of the stars in red. My plan is to combine this BOM with the blocks from the BOM on the 1st for one quilt. I'm using the same red in the star that I use in block from the 1st. This red is the same as the Church door. Hopefully that will tie all of the blocks together. we'll see how it works. I may end up with a seperate red star quilt.
    Excellent plan! Can't wait to see the finished quilt!

    I am using Basic Grey Origins fabric.
    I really like your star fabric! Are you planning to use this fabric again in the rest of your stars?

    That is great! I wish I could think up something like that. I just have to have a pattern or picture sitting in front of me.
