    Libster, terrific bright blocks. I sorted this fabric this afternoon along with the rest of the F8s I have for the group. Beautiful selection of fabrics everyone! Two more due to come in and this group's will be ready to go. (I know just the fabric I'm going to use with yours...hope you'll like it!)

    Hav, your elder g'son looks so much like my eldest son when he was that age. So adorable!

    Libster I made a practice star to see if this pattern would work. I wanted to see how many stars I can get in one block. I don't have any bright tone on tone but I do have bright solids. You can decide which color you would like in your block. From the center out: Coral, Light blue, lime green, and orange.

    My favorite is the lime green. Love that block, first time I've seen three stars like that. Really like the pattern.

    Lime green is a good choice. The triple star is something I came up with. I had to figure out how small to make the first star (3") then everything else came together. Each one double the last. So 3", 6" 12". I will have to work on the last round to get it 12.5".

    Everything is packaged and on its way. I decided to use the cat material for the Early Birds so everyone had more options when making multiple blocks. I am asking for solid white and one color from the fabric to be used in the block. No black or red as that will be used in the sashing and binding.
