Stars don't have a set pattern. They do travel across the space, although from our point of view it takes very long for them to change position on the heaven sphere.
Constellations won't look the same forever.
Also note that stars in the same constellations don't neccesarily have to be close together. Often their relative distances are greatly larger than their distances to us.
