Many Choices of the Sisters
Sister's Choice is a traditional block that is symmetrical. It offers many opportunities for scrapbag coloring.
The border is a separate block taken from 3/5 of the Sister's Choice block.

Sister, What Sister?
The Sister's Choice block becomes asymmetrical with the coloring so diagonal halves of the block are different. This coloring allows the use of the symmetry tool to get a nifty design!

9 Ribbon Stars
I started playing with the stars in neon solids, then wanted to give a ribbon effect with the underside of the ribbons being slightly darker than the outside of the ribbon... sometimes I use a lot of colors to start, then pick the combinations I like best and color over the rest. In this one, the blue and paler pink stars are the ones I like the best - so if I ever make this in fabric, I'll probably make alternate stars be blue and dusty pink.

Lattice Blocks and Diamonds
Here are the same nine blocks, colored from the inside out - and you don't see 9 star blocks at all. This color variation almost reminds me of stained glass quilts.

I enjoy created medallion quilts using this block as it looks so different than it does with all the blocks using the same fabrics.

Star-Bursts (or EQ Star 2 - Before)
I used the block - EQ Star 2 as my starting point. For this quilt, I changed the white in the original block to black and then added shades and tints of the original pink colour and used them to colour the other pieces of the block.

Star-Ornaments (or EQ Star 2 - After)
I stayed with the same colours as in my first quilt. However I changed the focus of the blocks by highlighting the pieces that went around the pinwheels with gradiations of pink. These pinwheels formed when four blocks were placed together. Then I coloured the other pieces in the block a solid black to create the X shape.

(After -- 2 of 3) Judge's Verdict: Quilter Shows Some Sparkle
Starting with the lightest shade in one 'pinwheel', I worked in circles with ever darker shades. If anyone tried to sew this in real life, I think he/she would need a lot of charts and notes.

(After -- 3 of 3) Judge's Verdict: Quilter Needs a Long Rest
What can I say? This one was FUN to do!
I did change the inner border from 'mitered' to 'blocks' and floated some motif diamonds over some of the escaping ribbons in the second border.
