I may be wrong about this, but I thought the pattern of stars shown on the Lady's cloak also matched the stars in the sky on the day she appeared to Juan Diego. Is this true?

I never heard anything like that. If you believe in Guadalupe (and according to what I am told, 100 per cent of Mexico does), then she is a "heavenly lady". This is her "miraculous appearance" clothing -- somethings maybe the angels made for earth. It is not of the earth, but it is a woven type cloth, and earthly like images on it, but very finely done.

Does your mother dress as nicely as the Virgin of Guadalupe and show as good a taste? Hopefully so.

No. The stars were painted onto the original image years later.

"It is said that 90 per cent of all people in Mexico are Catholic, but that 100 per cent believe in the Virgin of Guadalupe."

How many mexicans believe that 'the Virgin of Guadalupe' is/was a demonic manifestation? Certainly there are plenty of Pentecostal, and non-Pentecostal, Bible-believing, followers of the Nazarene Carpentar who do.
