Very inspired by the lovely and talented Kerry i have been diving into my small scraps for some scrappy stars. Wiping out the supply of the smallest pieces... These stars end up as a 6" block, the circle of stars at 22".
In may I also got to send out my pif to 9 lovely ladies:
The mug rugs are 6" * 9". And more stars are still on my to do list...; )
Ya'll have a lovely sunday!

Love the circular setting. Beautiful.
Stunning! Great job.
Wow Marit, I love the stars, both the quilt and the mug rugs, great job! xo
Lovely circled star quilt! Those blue mug rugs are gorgeous!
I love those stars!
I love what you did with the stars did you make the pattern or is the patteren somewhere where we can get it. I'm trying to see if I can make it myself.
Also love you PIF gifts
Leaving the 9th star out of the center, as you did, truly creates the circle visual for this block....great idea, Marit. I've been wanting to do some sort of red/white/blue American patriotic quilt and this would be a smashing, I think. Thanks for sharing!
absolutely fabulous. love love love your circles of stars!
I have always wanted to do a "stars only" quilt and this one is amazing! I would never have thought to put them in circles!
Så fine stjerner!! og så mange!! Hva er PIF?? Jeg blir så nyskjerrig!!:-) AnneK:-)
Love those stars! Really fun, may have to try some of those in the circle block!
I can't tell you how many blogs I follow, looking for inspiration or encouragement to lose myself int eh process of quiltmaking. It seems as though every idea has been turned over and relabeled as "new" without too much "new" actually happening. Then I bump into your post and I am stopped in my tracks. I love the way your stars twinkle in their wonkiness, their small size (much the way stars look to me in the night sky), and then to offset the angles by setting them in circles is pure genius. Thank you for a breath of fresh air! oh swoon!
I love the multiple circles Marit! I love it when someone takes an idea and runs with it, beautiful!
Oh, my! You have me star struck!
Beautiful! I love the way the stars become circles. Really keeps your eye entertained.
It's lovely stars and the design in circles is great! I have never seen something like it!
Your quilt is stunning! The most beautiful and original idea I've seen in a long time!
Thanks for sharing it with us!
Oh my stars, these are fantastic! I love that you started with 4-patches to make the stars scrappier, and I LOVE the circles! Very inspiring.
And those starry mug rugs really make me smile! Love that sneaky purple one!

What a wonderful layout this is, with bright colors and lots of contrast. I always like what I see on your blog.Thanks for the inspiration.
I love your stars in a circle formation. It is just perfect. Well done.
I saw your stars on pinterest tonight. They are so gorgeous and twinkly. Lovely. : )
The quilt is simply beautiful. I really like the stars arranged in the circle. I'm bookmarking this for future reference.
That sure is one way to be "seeing stars" - much better than a blow to the head! LOL
What a great way to use up your small scraps.
I LOVE these stars and the way you've arranged them into the circle block. Very clever :)
Love the setting of those super-cute little stars. The mug rugs are gorgeous, too!
I love your stars, they are wonderful. And the mug rugs are just gorgeous!! Love it!!!!
