Mexican Star
Today's featured quilt block is called Mexican Star. I just liked the way it all went together and the resultant quilts you can make using just this one block. The making of this quilt block can be a wonderful learning experience if you are new to quilting, as it introduces you to several different quilt patches during the construction.

And ... speaking of a "Mexican Star" ... how about some poignant words from another Mexican star?
