Here's a picture of the book this comes from

I'm going to have to make it much bigger..they need a queen size to the floor and over the pillows! Do try to get it, Denise, and give it a try. Maybe you can give me some shortcuts!
(edit to add the name of book "House of White Birches")

calicopuzzle in the book, the block is called "Swirling Star"..it's an 11 inch block..don't know if it's an original block or not. I've never seen it before anywhere. The quilt is called "Stars and Stripes".

Joanne this is just beautiful. Might write to the company,tell them about how you feel about the directions. Afterall, you have spent a lot of money on the fabric, plus your time and you deserve better.

I know I would.
