Star and Pine

The block for today (December 26) is Star and Pine. You might remember that I put it into the center of a quilt I created for a Christmas in July post for Benartex Fabrics.

Here's the block as I made it using Jackie Robinson's wonderful collection called Winter's Day:

My sister Janet G. also made a Star and Pine block (she's a Calendar Girl, too).

And here's the block as the center of my quilt. It's joined by 4 Yule Tree blocks from December 3.
