Barb in Louisiana

I added the strip in the corner of the block, then played around with the snowball to come up with this variation. One of these days I am going to have to sew one of these designs. I really like this one. I would make the strips around the snowball as a 3 part strip....light, blue, light, then cut my triangles from it for ease of getting the size right. The snowball edges ended up as a 3" blue with a 2" taupe. I think it gives it an elegance. I don't think I would go with the borders. I'm beginning to like the much smaller borders, letting the blocks shine.
