Found it!

I guess my old(ish) mind was mis-remembering. The quilt is a pinwheel, not a star. I was thinking that if I used a solid in every other square, rather than making it totally scrappy, the MOM blocks might work. Now I'll have to do some experimenting.

BTW, this was a king sized quilt that I made for a friend. She is a seamstress and made me some jackets in exchange.
