all of the stars are turning out pretty.

Miss Giggles,
I love the way the blue picks up the blue of the flowers in your brown fabric! Before I started quilting, I never realized how happy a piece of fabric could make me feel! :D

I just cropped a picture of one of my Amish Star blocks so that there is no background. I set it as my computer background tiled. (I reduced the size of the picture, too.) I can't believe the pattern that it makes! I had no idea it would look like that! It is SO pretty - now I want to do a whole quilt of Amish stars in 3 colors.

A ;ittle hydrogen pexicide will take it out but test it on the fabric first. but I know that "Grandma's spot remover" is the bomb!! I use it on everything from OLD grease spots that have even gone through the wash a couple of times. to ground in red cllay and it takes out everything and does not effect the color of the fabric. Its in some of the fabric sales magazines like clotilda and keepsake quiliting but I have alway bouth it at Hancock fabrics. I swear by it.

Hydrogen peroxcide is WONDERFUL! Shortly after I moved into my new house one of my kids broke an ink pen on nearly white carpet what a mess. After I used hydrogen peroxcide you couldn't even tell where the spot was ( and it wasn't a small area either).
