    Thanks everyone! It always helps to have a second (or a dozen!) set of eyes double check. I will definitely post when I get going on this, might be a little while as I have a dozen WIPs going right now. I just can't seem to find the time to do everything I want to. I will keep the board updated.

    That's a beautiful design. I would remove the last blue on the right. There's a lot of white in it and, depending on how big your pieces are, you might end up with more white than blue

    They look great. Maybe the blue next to the reds has a little too much white in it? It's hard to tell from folded edge. I guess key4unc said it already.

    It's a fantastic design, and an ambitious undertaking! Are you going to paper-piece the points of the stars? It just looks so intricate. I can't wait to see the finished quilt!!

    I love your pattern. Did you design it yourself?

    Excellent design. I would go with 'reads as solid' fabrics, except for the starry red one for the red stripe.
