    Default Name this block

    After spending 2 days searching for the name of this star I have come to my fellow quilters for help. Can you name this block? [ATTACH=CONFIG]423855[/ATTACH]

    Judy, if you are referring to mine (it does get a lot of attention). It is from the book "40 Bright and Bold Paperpieced Blocks" by C. Doak. it is the 18# block in the book. I absolutely love her blocks. This one in particular was made for a Boom 9 swap buddy. She sent the busy fabric and I supplemented and it turned out perfect. It was my favorite block I did in the swap.
