Here are the basics to make a Lone Star quilt (or Lemoyne block) out of HST blocks:
http://www.ideas-for-quilting.com/le...uiltblock.html
It's all about the color placement.
You can make the block/quilt any size you want, just as long as HST are the same size.
It's basically a 16-patch block:
4 HST blocks with color A and B
4 HST blocks color A and background color
4 HST blocks color B and background color
4 corner squares background color
But it's really not a LS/Lemonyne, even though they call it that in the link I posted ;-) ;-) ;-)
But visually, it's close.

There was one in an old Buggy Barn book, also check out the patterns by Calico Carriage - hers are all done with half square triangles. www.calicocarriage.com

Quiltstringz and I think alike!
Yesterday I signed up for a class with Debbie Maddy to make the Evening Star quilt. It is a lone star type made with all hsts . She designed the Labyrinth quilt pattern that is so popular. The pattern looks simple to follow without the class if you want to try it. http://www.calicocarriage.com/
