50 Fab Paper-Pieced Stars

And now on to this week's Oklahoma. I changed the colors a bit. I looked and looked at this one, had a conversation with a friend about it, and still didn't know how I wanted to do it until I pulled out the pattern yesterday.
Second in line is last weeks North Dakota, followed by Ohio. Still a bit behind from July's blocks when I was still unable to get into the sewing room. But moving around fine now, and back in the groove. LOL

I almost wish I had chosen a single background fabric, instead of going so scrappy. I will be using sashing so that should separate them enough.

the picture makes it look so muted...it really is not - the cross pieces are a fairy frost that just glows and the colored pieces are really quite vibrant batiks...i must have had bad lighting when i took the picture...oh well- oh it's not pressed either- i made it only using my wooden pressing tool instead of setting up the ironing board & iron...i will press it before i hang it with the others

For some reason I wasn't getting notifications until today and I forgot to check. The OKs look fantastic. I like all of them and I like the color change in the center of Judy's. I may try that except I'm hesitant to start Oklahoma since Michigan drove me nuts. It just took so long before any progress was made. I think they're the worst at 128 pieces. Boy, do I have some catching up to do.
Yep, bet you saw this one coming. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrDVzbeDzRk
