Irish I made the 16 patches because I just had to use a turquoise fabric I found in my stash. It was all 1 1/2 inch strips so I paired it with a yellow. I seem to love working with itty bitty pieces. I love to paper piece and have made several post cards. I would love to do some work in miniature and have a couple of patterns for it if i can just get to it.
I worked until midnight last night and got to a point that required some thinking and decided I should go to bed before I created a mess. My stars are 3 different colors (also didn't have enough of anything I like for those) so I was at a point where I would have to work on color placement of the triangle corners. Too much thinking for that late at night so I quit. Hopefully I will get to work on it today after I take the rest of the Christmas tree down. Then on to step 3.
