Rose Star #2


I've cut fabric to make 4 rose star blocks, and the 3rd is already half pieced.  If I don't put away the pile of red, green & light turquoise fabric that's sitting on the ironing board I might end up making this thing into a full sized quilt..

At the moment, I like what I've got done and it's been fun to do.  School starts again this week so I need to take a break from obsessively thinking about quilts and trolling flickr and pinterest.  Once I get my classes into a groove, I'll dip back and find a work/quilt balance again.  Maybe I can finish stars 3 and 4 before then?  Wish me luck..

  7. Beautiful blocks! I've made blocks almost like that, machine sewn though. But I'm going to quilt it by hand. Have a lovely week!
