Lone Star quilt tutorial coming soon is here, ideas

Star quilts were once the only thing I ever made, maybe because I had no idea how to do squares and triangles. Here are a few pictures to pique your interest in the new tutorial. Star quilts really are a piece of cake.

Quilted ready for binding
This is the one from the lower left in the 4 layed out on the floor pic.
This is like the one on page 72 of my book.
A customer called and said I want the quilt on page 72 in these colors.
I had to really look at the picture to figure it out. She likes it because it looks like spokes. 

Why these colors I have no idea, all I can say is the day I choose them I loved them.
It is a great example of diamond arrangement.
