Carpenter Star

I found this pattern online at Mary Quilts.  Her's is really pretty.  I think now, I see my mistake.  I didn't use one of the colors as the "dark" and one of the colors as a "light".  I don't think I am going to go ahead with it as I had planned.  It might be ok as is, but it is really stunning using the lights and darks. ...so back to the drawing board......more fabric for my stash.  Also, I was going to use one cream for the background, but it really does look better with various creams.
