This was fun. It is the opposite of the Crazy Star in Plate 59- the crazy is in the star, not the back ground. I like this method of making a star- it somehow makes more sense to me. I have to decide borders- it is 50 inches by 65 inches right now, so a bit big for the lap but too small for the bed. Yellow? Just more purple, in other shades because that is what I've got?

Wow, what a great idea--a smashing quilt!
This is AWESOME!!! I love it!!!
It's always nice to use what you've got, but I vote yellow, because I think the contrasting colour would really complement the quilt top. This is really, really beautiful!
Love how you've played with the original inspiration and made it your own! I'd use a bit more purple, then maybe a stringy border. The purple will be great for some fancy quilting. LOVE IT :)
fabulous! very lively. some zing on the outer edges would be wonderful BUT I can see how continuing on with purple keeps the star the focal point. Will be fun either way.
This is so pretty! I love how you kept the outside points in greens and blues. The oranges and reds are super!
