So we start the 4th month, with a choice in our block... the directions are for either a 9" or 12" (assuming you're using the instructions on Quilter's Cache...)
Cathy's Star involves lots of points to match up. Guess I'll see if I've really improved in my abilities! :-) It also looks like the value/colour choices will make a big difference on which star you see :-)
Its been a while since we've worked with so many small pieces (59 of them I think) in the block. I think, given their size I'm off to make up a new batch of starch... Maybe I should just enlarge the pattern and use it as a table topper, doubling everything to make a 24" inch block would be almost sane :-)

QP...could you possibly give me the cutting requirements for the 24" block?
And the starch recipe as well.
Oh my, back to the challenging ones. I don't think we have ever had a block where the instructions went on for 4 pages and using 6 colours. This should be interesting.
24 inches? How about 36 inches? It's a beautiful block though! But it's like a whole quilt in and of itself! Yes, the starch recipe please.
