I like this pattern but keeping the colors straight was a challenge! I have all kinds of left over pieces from making the parts the wrong colors. I think this would be nice enlarged to medallion size as the center of a quilt.
I hear you about keeping the pieces straight! One of the first blocks we did I had that problem and this time I had little scraps of paper with dimensions on them sitting on top of each little pile, and still struggled to get the right colours where they belong!
I love how the small star really shows up using dark fabric there.
I like the constrast of your dark star against the rest of the block.
It definitely was a challenge keeping the pieces and colours straight. Initially I thought I had everything set and then starting putting things together only to find out I was missing a couple of squares.
Welcome to our weekly block party! This is a group blog for sharing our successes and struggles with the week's chosen block. The challenge of completing the weekly block is open to everyone. The block and a link to its online instructions will be posted on Fridays. If you would like to join us, please follow the link to Hetty's blog, or leave a comment on a post indicating you'd like posting priviledges here. I'll be happy to add you as an author -- even if you are only doing some of the blocks :-)
Authors to this blog are asked to label each post with their name and the week# of the block represented by the post. This way we'll all be easily able to see all the blocks for each week as well as all the blocks by any one person. Thanks for your cooperation!

Yeah! A crazy block when it comes to keeping the pieces in the right place. The brown star really stands out. I like that.

I had a hard time keeping everything straight as well, but it really worked out for you though!
