Scraps and Stars?

I've been accumulating little four-patches, made up as leaders/enders, at an alarming rate; all the result of piecing other projects. They were piling up at such a fast pace that I began stitching those little units together as nine-patch blocks, in an effort to control the volume, until I had a whole stack of 36-patch scrappy blocks similar to those pictured here. I have come up with this layout as a way to use them up and show them off, but just can't come up with a clever working name. I just know that you can help me out! What do you think? Surely you can help me with a more original title than "Scraps and Stars!!?
Life is Good!

...and, another color option, black/gold...

    How about:

    star power
    star studded
    star quality
    rock star
    wish upon a star
    super star
    rising stars
    shoot for the stars

    Okay, I can't admit I thought of all these....I had a little help from my pal, Google. :-) I think my favorite might be "Star Power" though.

    Twinkle Twinkle Little Scraps? I know, it's lame.

    Boy do I love the design of that quilt! It will be a beauty when you are finished, no matter which color way you choose.

    Oooo...love the design. I also have a truck load of little 4 patches from leader/ender sewing. I've got to get them assembled into 16 patches to tame them.

    "Checkered Stars." I immediately saw stars interspersed among checkerboards. But love the design.

    For the black and gold one: Glimmering Galaxies

    For the blue and red one: Pieces of Patriotism.

    Well.... I tried.
