the number 5, as in i'm now working on vertical row 5 of orca bay, of which there are 7 total i think. so, i decided a brief detour was allowed. this feathered star has been on my design wall far too long. there's only a bit left to get the flimsy done. just a couple more rows of the HSTs to set in and i can work on corner squares and triangles. this is a gift so i would like to get it to the quilting stage. sorry about the DWR background but of course the design wall is completely covered with orca bay. **** as per usual, i'm also working on a couple of small projects which are under cover until completed. and i'm also tackling the browns/muslin project now and then. i am truly working on UFOs but no more finishes yet; probably there will be 2-3 close together as i tend to finish things in a bunch. and--confession here--i started another project, a hexie amish quilt with no deadline to finish but i needed to bust some of my solid stash. as we all know, one twin quilt top doesn't result in significant reduction of fabric, but it all goes to using it up. happy to say the last few projects i've started have been ENTIRELY from stash...no purchases at all. this is a good thing indeed!
Gorgeous Feathered Star. I am signing up for a class to learn some magical technique to make these. : )
ReplyDeleteI'll let you know how the magic works--the class isn't for a few weeks.
I have to admit that at first I thought the DWR was the actual background for the FS!
