I always admired and coveted a red and white feathered star sampler quilt that my mother had made and used on her four poster bed. I even 'inherited' her Marsha McCloskey book that is now out of print. Eventually I got up the courage to create one for myself. It was such a fun pattern to do, intricate and challenging, yet doable. I was actually sad when I finished the 9th and last block. I actually plan to do another in the not-too-distant future!
