Friendship round robin quilt

Terry's Friendship Medallion round robin quilt
Here's my contribution to a friend's round robin medallion quilt. Twenty-four 8-pointed stars. Many are fussy cut to echo the fussy cuts in the centre star. Others are random to gel with the scrappy stripes. I just love how the stripes (added by a Leanne) make the star radiate.

The centre block is called Flying Swallows and was made by the quilt's originator and owner Terry.

I think I might have to add a 1" border around the whole thing because after the amount of effort that went into it I'd cry if my points were accidentally cut off!
