    Here is my Blue and White Star. By the way I hope, like Judy suggested you are all going to put a label on you blocks so we know whose is who, think that would be really cool.

    Thats fantastic Butterfly!

    I think I'm going to do 2 sets, one for practice and one to send. I can then alternate between my set and the swops. The points on my first set arent matching too well yet, although from the advice on here the second block was a lot better than the first, so maybe by block 3 they will be ok to send - and I'll just have a couple of extras from the practicing.

    Thanks everyone, that was blood sweat and tears. I never let things beat me though. Glad you all like it.

    I did think about making 24 but at the rate I am going I think 12 is enough.

    Yes its paper pieced from quilters cache called the Florida Star.

    Glad you like it. There was a lot of blue air around when I was sewing today.
