I love the Evening Star, but I also like Toe Tap, but I think Evening Star would be the one I would choose to do first.
I love the colours too. Have fun picking all your fabrics and I'm sure the shop hop will be a blast!

Wow – so many wonderful responses! I also took a poll this evening at Girl’s Nite Out (GNO) and the winner was Evening Star as well.
The Toe Tap finished size is 66x66. The original pattern had it as 46x66, but I added another two “columns” to make it square (for some reason I just don’t like non-square quilts – very odd!!). The Evening Star finished size is 74x74. The original pattern had it at 54x54, but I wanted it bigger.
I am going to make the Evening Star in this color combo, but to the folks who liked the Toe Tap – don’t despair. I will make it at some point. It has been on my favorites list for a while and I really like it. It may be the one after Evening Star!
Thanks for all the responses and votes! I’ll post a pic when I get the top done and then another when I’ve finished quilting it. I’ve already started planning the quilting part – this pattern really lends itself to some neat quilting. I’m so jazzed to start! It’s killing me to wait, but I have some Christmas gifts to finish first.
