Twinkle Stars

 I've added another red Twinkle Star block.  Isn't this one a hoot?  I love, love, love that big polka dot in the star points.  


I haven't decided yet exactly how I plan to lay out these blocks for a quilt.  Sashing - pieced or plain?  No sashing at all?  Framed blocks?  But there are definitely plenty of options.


I laid out the the 29 blocks I have so far to see what colors I really should focus on.  There are plenty of yellow, purple, and green.  But I really could add more red or aqua or maybe some darker blue.  

And honestly - if I want a nice big quilt then I'll need quite a few more blocks.

    Love the polka dots, wow those are some pretty blocks...I can see them sashed in that multicolored dot fabric like in the Fish School:)

    Yes, a couple more red blocks for sure and then, perhaps, some dark blue too.

    I made a Twinkle Star quilt when I won the Block Lotto. I remember debating straight or on-point. I'll email you a photo....Meanwhile, teh polka dot is a great touch!

    This is one of my favorite blocks. Yours are beautiful, love the bold and bright colors. Seeing yours makes me want to make another quilt from them.

    Twinkle Stars are really beautiful. Maybe next year I will make them for RSC. Whatever layout you choose, it will be lovely.
