Carolina Christmas, Continued

I started Bonnie Hunter's Carolina Christmas last fall.  I got all the poinsettia blocks done then.



This week I finished the 108 fox units and the 104 geese units. 

 
Four fox and geese blocks will go together to make Carolina Star blocks.
 
 
I love this quilt, but I wish this pattern said which way to press the seams.  I'd like to have all  the seams nest when I join the poinsettia blocks and  the Carolina Star blocks, but I'm not sure I'm smart enough to do it without some guidance.

Looks great. I've sewn my CC blocks together in the last few weeks. I'm not sure you can get the seams to nest nicely on all the intersections. Just do the best you can. I'm making it about half sized from the pattern. I've got the blocks done for the border and now I just need to drag it out and finish it up. It's on hiatus for a while as I work on other things, again. Good for you for staying at it! It is going to be great.

That's such a pretty block! I like your Making History top, too.
