ArteEmCasa...I thought all of the frogs were at my house!!! They just wouldn't let the middle points match no matter how I tried to evict them. Just hope they don't keep hopping along with me.
All...I love the rest of the blocks and admire your skill both with points and selections of fabrics. Here are mine for the week. |

I worked several hours on it but you know, it seemed that as much as tried it was turning worse. Oh my! Now I am happy because I decided let it be as it is. :) |
Arte another beautiful block--I love the colors you used and it looks good to me.
GGal how pretty your blocks are. I like how different your star looks in the softer colors. And NO--I was not talking about bodily functions. Thanks, ladies for explaining what a FART is. I have 2 quilty friends and we'll get in her van, hit Quilt Stores in....(where ever we want to go) and take off for a day of shopping and eating. My DH learned not to ask "where" we're going LOL because we usually don't know LOL!! |
How fun, Jan. This old Fart needs a road trip like that once in a while.
ArteEm--sharp colors reinforced by the stars in the bground. I have found that I usually will only rip twice, if I haven't gotten it right by then I never will and yes this was a time consuming block. I had more trouble sewing that last "Y" seam. When I tore some of the seam allowance paper off it tore into the big triangle block and I lost my seam allowance and made sewing that a bugger. I've learned not to stress over it either--just not worth it, it's only a quilt. GGal Nice bright blues in the lanes, a refreshing change. What's the paisley fabric in the bground of your star? Yeah it's probably my favorite type of fabric. Your star points complement it so well. |
