    Love it in batik! There aren't directions in the book for a scrappy quilt (each block made from two different fabrics and no two blocks the same) but I think that may be my next project. Trying to decide between batiks and some of the big prints with lots of colors, paired each time with a calmer blender-type print....I just love to play with gorgeous fabrics!

    I have a black, white and red one on my quilting frame right now. I'll have to post a pic when I get it finished.
    They are right - it is an easy pattern.

    You could use a neutral background for all, but cut the star points from all of your scraps and then mix them up. However, a large floral or print of some kind would give a lot of color. I think in the back of the book there is a picture of a polka dot quilt that has different colors. I really think ANYTHING will look nice with this pattern. ;-)

    Love the green and purple as purple is my favorite color and the other two quilts are stunning especially the polka dots and yellow.
