I have not seen this block before , it appears a bit difficult but turns out to be an interesting quilt.
Download now as a pdf pattern
Martha Washington Star. I haven't seen this one for a long time, since I first began quilting and then I thought it was way to hard to ever do. Since then I look at things differently. Instead of looking at the whole thing I take it apart in my mind and see the easy parts. It all seems to be fairly good to me now.
Quilt as you go for borders. I have not ever tried this method but maybe some of you might like this way of putting quilts together.
Ray and I went out around 1:30 first for bread and secondly to take a library book back as it was due tomorrow. Then we decided to go to Richmond to Fabricana where I spent a bit of time and checked out the Halloween fabrics. It took me a while to find them as the store is big and has lots of lovely fabric :))
Eventually did find them and was able to choose . Then I took them to the counter, because there was a sale I had to wait a bit at the cutting table, also at the cash register. Here are my lovelies!!
Not such a good photo , I'll take another one tomorrow when the light is better.
Then we went to the Richmond mall, had a hard time finding a parking spot.
We went to the Way On shoe shop and bought some slippers. I got one pair and Ray bought two pair. When he got them home he discovered thay were too small. Back to WayOn!!!!
Also I bought some lovely hand soap, two bottles, lemon and orange from Bath and Body Works. First time for me. Ray's niece loved this soap so much she went to the USA to buy lots of them before the company came to Canada.
When we got home Marg called to say she had a very good book that she was finished with and did I want it. Well of course I did, so she came over and stayed for a while and chatted. The book is by Rick Mofina and is called They Disappeared. I have a pile of books to read now. Thanks Marg LOL.
After Marg left I lay down as my feet were killing me from walking
the mall, the poor things were swollen. But I lay down and read a bit then the pain went away.
We had leftovers for dinner of course.
Time for TV watching.
Animal time Haha!!
All alone and blue, no one to tell my troubles to. Well maybe you can tell them to those big guys you are sitting on LOL.
A trio of dogs looking for fun or maybe trouble. 
Oh my goodness another trio just sitting there looking cute LOL.
Other stuff.
This is a pretty block and the colours give it such a nice look. I don't have any instructions but I am sure you can figure it out. I would go with the 2.5" for the squares and make the triangle blocks 3" and cut them down. You will waste some small bits of fabric but that's life. We all have so much fabric that a little bit of waste is not that dreadful.
This is another colourful block for which I have no pattern. But still I want to share it with all of you. 
LOLOL!!
Aaron on the Zip Line in West Virginia , he is my grandson who lives in Louisiana in Lake Charles where his dad Adam lives. This is a job that he is on. Now don't ask me what he is working at, I have no idea. Nobody does the old jobs any more LOL.
Coffee is good for you......~
So enjoy your coffee come the morning.
Now it is time for me to go.
Have a great evening!
