Lone Star
An eight-pointed star of 45-degree diamonds, each point pieced from small diamonds in rings of colour that radiate from the centre, with set-in background corners and side triangles.
Ohio Star
A nine-patch star: plain corners, a centre square, and quarter-square-triangle side units whose triangles form eight points.
Barbara Frietchie Star
Sixteen half-square triangles: pairs along each edge make eight star points, the corners are triangles, and the centre four units form a pinwheel.
Friendship Star
A nine patch with plain corners, a centre square, and four half-square-triangle side units turned the same way round so the star points spin like a pinwheel.
LeMoyne Star
Eight 45 degree diamonds meet at the centre to form an eight-pointed star whose tips touch the block edges; corner squares and side triangles are set into the gaps. The diamonds often alternate two fabrics.
Rising Star
A sawtooth star whose centre square is itself a smaller sawtooth star, drawn on an eight-by-eight grid.
Sawtooth Star
A four-by-four star: a large centre square, four flying-geese units whose small triangles make eight star points, and plain corner squares.
