I was sifting thru my book and magazines and all the other loose patterns on my bookcase and came across a pattern I think will fit nicely with all the fabric prints I want to use on this quilt. It is called a Starry Path Month 6 From A Galaxy Of Stars block of the month in the Jinny Beyer Palette.

Since I am using an assortment of red, white and blue prints I am definitely going to rinse them to make sure they don't bleed. I have a solid white on white print that is being used for the background so I thought I should play it safe and prepare these fabrics carefully.

I am doing this tomorrow. Should I use white vinegar and cold water to help set the colors or use diluted borax and cold water? Any suggestions on this color palette?

I am excited to start and I think I can do this as a paper-pieced block. Only 4 pieces to this entire block and each block requires 4 quadrants. Simple, but unusual. If I like it, I may end up making a second in a different color theme.

Feedback please asap! Thanks.
