| I've never seen them, I don't think. I did see one time when we were up north, big stars on Barns. I read a thing about it, but I can't remember what it said! lol _________________

Thanks for the link Pam. The Barn Quilts are really interesting. No we don't have any around here Paige. We do have the Metal Stars. They are everywhere. I have one in my living room. It looks just like the flag one in this picture I posted. Does anyone else have/heard of the metal stars?

| I haven't seen the stars here yet, Susie. I like the flag one the best.
It's funny how thigs take off like that. For awhile it seemed to be garden gnomes, and the gazing balls. I never really cared for the gazing balls because they always looked like gigantor Christmas bulbs, lol.
But, I guess it's like that with everything. I see jelly shoes have made a comeback. Though they are much more stylish than the jellies of the 80's! And I am going off topic.  _________________
