    Thanks everyone. I used the Deb Tucker Lemoyne Star Ruler. My fabric repeat was 11 3/4" and I cut 2 1/2" strips which makes a 9 1/2" block. I also have the Martelli table with all the accessories. I used the 9 1/2" fussy cut square template to cut each completed block. They all came out perfect. I initially used a dual mirror to see how the fabric would look. I made my own because I couldn't find one. Believe it or not, but all this fabric in the entire quilt comes from a fabric store that sells ALL fabrics for $2.99/yd. It's hit or miss. Most of the fabrics are Northcott and Blake. They are all wonderful fabrics. I don't generally buy cheap fabric, but I couldn't resist.

    It is stunning! Love the sashing and snow ball blocks; they really make the stack and wacks stand out!

    I love your quilt. I like the way you separated your busy blocks with plain blocks so they can be seen and enjoyed. Nice job.

    Love your quilt. Never tire of making kaleidoscope quilts. The effects are stunning.

    Wow! Very pretty. I bought the S&W book quite awhile ago but never got around to doing anything with it yet. After looking at all your blocks I think I need to give it a try. Great job!
