"What can I do with the Sun Rays block?"

Here are a few ideas! Although Sun Rays is made of only straight pieces, the effect is of a 1/4 circle or a curve, especially if the central "stripe" is a strongly contrasting color. This offers lots of interesting design possibilities, only a few of which are pictured here. All the designs below were created using only the Sun Rays block in different colorations and rotations. How many new designs can you make?
