The triangle squares were auditioning for the new quilt's layout last night. The star would end up 30" so 2 of them plus more triangles placed as borders would complete a 60" x 80" quilt top.
My original plan was to make a zig zag quilt, either horizontal or vertical orientation.
Then I decided to try the on point settings both horizontal and vertical. I need to cut 8 more light triangles and sew the last blocks before I can get serious about the layout.
I mowed the front yard grass yesterday afternoon while it was still 59 degrees. Today will be closer to 70 and I need to finish the side yard and mow the back. The weatherman said 39 degrees for our area overnight last night so I felt hopeful there would not be a chance of frost after all.

Love the "sunshine" at the center of that star.
Awesome HST layouts, Wanda. I love them ALL!!
Yes to the star. How about bordering the 2 stars with the zigzags? We got down to 39 last night, but it's sunny and clear so hopefully it will be warmer today.

That would be a tough choice. They are all so pretty!
OOPS~ I left this comment on yesterday’s comments…. One more time
Your tryouts are all lovely, I do vote for THE STAR, it lights up the screen like all stars do.

The star is awesome. Love the sparkling colors.
I love the versatility of the HSTs. They are all gorgeous so you can't go wrong in your decision.
I like them all -- but the starBURST is the best!
