You are the proud maker of a beautiful Hunters Star. I am making one as we speak. it is so easy to make. I do use a lot of starch to keep the bias in line!
EDIT: You can probably find a free pattern on line if you do a search. here is one!

I checked out the links and patterns everyone suggested and found that there are two versions. One is made using trapizods (and they sell a special ruler for this pattern). The quilt I orginally made (and posted above) was made with half square triangles, not the trapizods and I tracked that pattern down to Fons & Porter. It was in an old magazine, but they still sell the pattern online. The half square triangle pattern was super easy because you can use the thangles type paper. I'm already in my quilting room sorting through my fat quarters! Can't wait to start sewing.

Here is a tutorial using only half square triangles and squares.

It is a Hunters Star. I did one a couple of years ago , was easy for me. I used a light Batik and a dark Batik. Turned out really nice but if/when I do another one I will add at least one border. I didn't put one on the light and dark but wished I had. Oh well, live and learn.
