    Hi Jodi!
    I think it turned out wonderful! I bet your Mother will love it. I do. I am glad that I could help. Great Job! Plus, I want to thank you for posting pictures of the completed top. I'm glad we all got to see it.

    I did this with 6 inch squares and it was a pretty throw.

    Hi danmar,
    Your Carpenter's Star is beautiful. Your work is awesome.
    Looking forward to trying your patterns and following all your projects. Thank you for sharing. I remembered to vote for Swish again. Can't wait to get my pattern.

    As soon as I saw your pattern I fell in love with it and set to work on one for a very special neighbor. Retired policeman and a "basement carpenter". His favorite holiday was the 4th of July and they celebrated every year with over a 100 guest and lots of fireworks! Always a big day, that's why I chose the red/white & blue. Father's Day he was diagnosed with acute lukemina and died on July 2. It devasted us all. They proceeded to celebrate "his" holiday and I gave the wall hanging to his wife, as I had made it for them both. She was very pleased with the gift.

    Made w/6" blocks 48x48

    I'm so sorry for the loss of your neighbor. The wall hanging is awesome. I'm sure that he would of loved it. I do. You did a great job on it. I'm glad his wife liked it.
