I designed this block in EQ. I wanted to use 1930's fabrics, and I really like how it turned out. I can't enter the Barn Quilt Contest, as I am not a resident of the US.....darn.Someone suggested that I do one, so I sent it in, but I then realized it was not for international residents, but I will make something out of it anyways.LOL Hope it inpsires you to enter the AccuQuilt Barn Quilt Contest. I love Stars, and I love anything that is 1930's fabrics. I threw the heart in, as I adore hearts too. It's funny that it went through anyways, but I won't be considered. It was fun designing though.
I do love EQ...so much fun! I am heading to bed laughing, as I thought it funny that it went through and was submitted anyhow.

I really like your block. Are you going to sew one up for at least a cushion? I think it would be a winner.
Sorry your block doesn't qualify- it is very pretty. I like to play with EQ7 also but seems I never have enough time.(or maybe I am just slow)
O Micki , I love your block! That little Heart accent is a real winner in my book!
Very nice Micki. I don't have EQ; but, it looks fun.
It's the thought that counts Micki!!! I love that block, it would make a great cushion cover!!!
Like that block. Wish I had EQ. It always looks like it would be so much fun.
What a nice block, that is a good program.
I have a mac, so got the quilt pro, hardly use it.

I always wanted to get to Donegal but it was so far up. Sligo is as far as I got. But the cross I made..for the stage out of styrofoam and carved and painted.. in John's concerts is from Donegal county.
We went out in the country..way out to find the quiet man's real house. It was falling down with berry bushes..... and a new one from the 50's was in front of it. But that one was abandonded too! Guess they got money from the film to make it the new one now empty..or at least it was years ago.
Blessings..
Love, love, love your block~!
Precious Micki,
That is such a classic and beautiful design of a star and I too love these vintage fabrics from a time where homelife must have been difficult, but sweet nonetheless. Thank you for visiting me and always having such kindness radiate from your comments!!!! Anita
Beautiful block Micki. Double darn that you can't enter.

That is such a sweet block, Mick! I love it. Thank you for entering my giveaway - it's always great to hear from you! :)
It's a great block! I didn't know the contest is open only in the US. Bummer, because that block is definitely prize worthy!
