Friendship Quilt

I am a member of a mini group. One of the members will be moving in 5
months or less. We'd like to make her a quilt. I was wondering besides
the friendship star what other type of block could be use as we want to
sign the center of the block we make. As of right now we want to make
it a two color quilt. Thank you in advance for any suggestion.

I am doing this VERY thing! :-) I wrote to Marcia Hohn requesting
permission to print out the instructions for the following star block
at her site.

She was gracious and gave me permission. Thanks Marcia! :-) She also
requested to 'see' the final quilt! :-)

I chose it because there are several newbies in our guild, and this is
an easy block for everyone. I supplied tone-on-tone cream background
fabric and asked everyone who is making a star to use any blue she has
in her stash. Blue is the recipient's favourite colour. It should
turn out to be a lovely two colour quilt, although each star will
likely be a different blue. I can't wait to receive them all back
ready to assemble.

Nice star. It will make a great quilt.

Thank you everyone for their suggestions. Once we as a group make a
decision and the quilt is made I'll put it on webshots and let everyone
know. Right now I am thinking of getting a Lighthouse panel and having
everyone make an autograph block to go around it. She collects
Lighthouses and teddy bears. So it's a tough choice as to what to pick
for the center. But we were thinking of blue and white blocks and I
think that will look good with a Lighthouse center.
