That's awesome! I love it a lot!
I want to make valanced for my bedroom and haven't decided on a pattern yet. I love the idea of stars!
I think they're perfect - super job!

Well done!

ha, Hubby chose the fabrics, now that he's hooked I can follow up with something scrappy :-) . How much wider would you go? I was thinking the last point to line up with the window frame..
Any other ideas? remember this is a draft :)

I like the fabrics :D:D:D
I agree with the last point lining up with the window would look better :D:D:D

I like it just the way it is. What a great idea!! From what I can see, your points a perfect. I just may copy-cat you. I have a group of windows that I've been wondering what to do with. Sophie

I agree with Deb. I'd leave a little white space between the star points and the dark border at the top. I think it would help to keep the stars from wanting to float right off the top of the valance. This is a fabulous window treatment and your work is beautiful.
