FLOATING STARS

I watched a YouTube from Lori Holt on how to make this star she calls Criss Crossed Star and thought it would be the perfect frame for the latest panel quilt I want to make.   What's nice about this star is that it floats on the background-there are no worries about cutting off points when you piece the blocks because the white fabric frames more than a 1/4" to the points--very clever!
I cut up a bunch of 3 1/2" and2 1/2" squares plus a ton of background squares needed to make 16 of the star blocks.
They will be framing this FL panel-all fabrics were purchased on a long ago Shop Hop!
