    I've never done anything with angles (other than HST's which are very simple) or diamonds, and I want to make a Hunter's Star for my brother, who is an avid hunter. So I decided to do a practice quilt and bust up some of my stash and here's what I decided on. Here's the kicker - the turquoise and lime green are polyester, which is a mistake of huge proportions, I know and I swear I'll never do it again EVER.
