My 2018 quilt plan says that the Twinkle Star quilt is the project for August.

| Twinkle Stars Tutorial by Andrea Feldbush of Soscrappy |
Twinkle Stars was my Rainbow Scrap Challenge project for 2015. I finished the final 4 blocks last year, but I apparently never put the blocks back up on the design wall so I could photograph the whole set of 72. The plan is to set these together with a 1" sashing and corner stones. That's a lot of sashing to cut and stitch. With the sewing time restrictions this month, getting this to the finished flimsy stage is not happening. So my goal for August is to figure out the final block postions and cut the sashing strips so it's ready for assembly the next time this project comes up in the rotation. That should be doable. The point is to move the project along. Thankfully the deadline for this quilt isn't till graduation season next year.

I love these stars so much! Your beautiful star blocks inspired me to make one quilt already - now looking at them again has me itching to make another! (Maybe I should follow your lead and use it for RSC, just to keep me from chasing off after *another* darn squirrel)
Twinkle Stars are such neat star blocks! That's a block I've never tried. They're going to make a beautiful quilt! Every little bit of progress counts! :)
Love Twiinkle Stars! Just yesterday I came across a picture of my ONE block from RSC a couple of years back and it made me want to make more.
I'm starting a file of blocks I want to make next years for RSC, and these stars are in the #1 position! I'm glad you'll be moving this one forward and want to see how the sashing/cornerstone layout looks :)
Beautiful! I can't wait to see it at the end of the month.
Gosh, I think it's gorgeous just as it is without the sashing!
pretty quilt. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and good luck with your project.
These are such great blocks! Hope the work stuff is manageable- I am in the midst of a busy period too so not lots of sewing going on here either,
