In 2007 Leanne Beasley posted a message on her blog about making a quilt with a block for every day of the next year. Knowing I wouldn't have enough discipline to write up a note for every day, I decided to make one block per month to keep track of highlights and decorate each block with stitcheries by my favourite designers. I've wanted to make a "star" quilt for some time, so thought this quilt was a good opportunity to find various star block patterns and hunt out all my red/cream/white fabrics. Amazing how many fabrics can be called "red". The time has gone so quickly and now I'm working on January's stitchery block.

I love your idea of making the 365 with starblocks. I gave up after 3 months...
just happened to notice your side note about 365 challenge.
I so love how you have done your top.
I took this challenge on too but followed Leanne's instructions. Mine is just a huge top folded up and put away. I did add a bit of stitching and piecing along the way to break it up. Yours looks much more practical and appealing. Have you quilted it yet?
