int main()
 {
	//code
	
	int t;
	cin>>t;
	while(t--){
		int n;
		cin>>n;
	    int x = 1;
        for (int i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
            for (int j = 1; j <= n; j++) {
                if (i % 2 == 1 && j <= x)
                    cout<<'*';
                else if (i % 2 == 0 && j >= n - x + 1)
                    cout<<'*';
                else
                    cout<<'#';
            }
            cout<<"\n";
            if (i <= n / 2)
                x++;
            else
                x--;
        }
	}
