Nice Carpenter's Star. Don't you just love the pattern! I have done several now and seen so many done on this forum. They are always so pretty no matter what colors are used. It is quick and easy and easy to change the size of the block to make larger or smaller. I did my first one from Danmar's tutorial and got hooked from that. Now I love all kinds of stars, but this is still my favorite. She has put on a lot of tutorials on stars here that maybe you have already seen. They are great.

Great work, there are a lot of pieces in just one block. Good luck, but it would make a fabulous quilt.

Hi leatheflea! I have had alot of people make this block from my tutorial and it really is fairly simple to make. I bet you could make one with no problems at all. Try it. You'll be surprised! Here's the link to the pattern:
