QE--Yep school is pretty much done for the year. I am cutting out the middle for the propellers and using "steam a seam" to applique it on.
I started laying out the planes alternating with 4-Ps, but then decided to try something a little different. What do you think? Not enough room for dk blue border and propellers all the way around on my design wall, so just did two sides. I will also add an outer border...was thinking repeating the dk blue, but might go with a piano key using the fabrics from the 4-Ps. You can't tell in the pictures, but the planes and propellers are on a very light blue batik for a "sky" effect.
