My Scrappyness is growing

I had a pretty great weekend - lots of stitching, thread, and only a teeny teeny bit of ripping.... so you all know that is good!!

Look at where I am on the scrappy one now:



Now I think I want to make a tiny white border and a larger blue border and Bam!! It will be ready to quilt.

Someone said this is a lemoyne star and someone else said a Hunter Star

and I said - I don't know ! But it uses 4 : 5 inch red squares
                                                             4: 5 inch Blue Squares
and                                                       8 5 inch White Squares

and it comes out about 17 1/2 inches per block - and Bam!! it goes together fast!

There was lots of beauty being formed in your sewing room over the weekend. You'll be done by tomorrow;)

Great progress. It might be scrappy but the cohesive color scheme pulls it all together beautifully.

I love your quilt. It looks so patriotic. I am in the lemoyne star camp. Enjoy finishing this beauty.

Productive weekend! Your scrappy patriotic stars look great!

Love this one. It definitely is not a Hunters Star. I'm going with the LeMoyne Star.

Looks great!

Blocks that size make a nice quilt in relatively short time. Bam! Great job!

I never would have guessed that these blocks would go together quickly. Lucky you!!

It's going to be a beautiful quilt. I too think it is Lemoyne star. Your contrast in this block is wonderful, and I love the look.

Thanks for linking with Design Wall Monday, I like to see what you are working on.

I LOVE this one! I like most of the quilts with stars, but somehow this one is more special. Thanks for sharing :)
