    I'd just start laying them out and switching them around until you come up with something you like. It might mean a little trimming or adding more fabric.

    Don't know what I was thinking, but the squares are 9 x 9 which would make them 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 when finished. And yes the wonky stars are pieced.

    Thanks for the sites to check out on Wonky Stars.

    This is why I always make a copy of the pattern/instructions and include them with the UFO; otherwise my feable mind pleads ignorance.

    Sorry to be different. I have No UFOs. I finish every quilt totally before starting another. Just the way I have always done it.

    I love the fabrics and colors, and the future bride likes them too. I don't have any suggestions, but I'm sure someone else on the QB will have some. I don't think I even want to figure out how many UFO's I have that are in various stages of completion, including 2 or 3 BOM, 2 of which has all the fabric needed to complete the top of the quilt, including the border. I've decided to let them age a little longer, as they are at least 7-8 years old, but I did finish the blocks on at least 2 of the BOM quilts. Every so often I happen to come across them and I feel as if I've just found buried treasure. LOL.

    I think I would make some blocks with the darker pink stars also. How much fabric do you have? What size do you want to make. Looks like with some sashing and borders added you may be able to do a throw size. It is pretty fabric. If you have measurements of the cut fabric square and rectangles it will help to determine options and if sizes go together.

    There has been a disappearing nine patch with pin wheels in the four corners. I think a D9P with the wonky stars in the four corners would be pretty and fairly fast after the star blocks were made. Really cheery fabric and it will be lovely no matter what you choose.

    Quiltville has a pattern for wonky stars. Could that be the one?

    WOW, Barb, you may have me beat. I was ashamed of the many UFO's I have but I think you top me. I don't purchase kits so I know you have me beat there. GOD Bless
