Monday Morning Star Count 2014/17
After last week's post I was excited to choose some new fabrics for more diamonds, but then I lost my motivation to stitch them together. I can't explain it really, it just happens. I started to feel a bit meh about the project so I repacked my sewing kit and then shelved it for a while.

It's fun collecting bits of neutrals, I don't have a lot of neutral scraps so I'm actually cutting from larger pieces of fabric, just 3 or 4 squares of each, and I like how it's coming along.

ReplyDeleteThis one is fun to look at. I want to study the colors and prints!
ReplyDeleteLove the scrappy stars with the neutral background hexies.
ReplyDeleteI too like the neutral fabrics. I tend to default to white. I can't help but notice the tiny bunny. :) I'm currently sewing my 36 stars together. Again, no link.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors- it reminds me of mosaic tiles. The fabrics are so interesting and I love the combination with the neutrals. 3/4" hexies...I have to try them, but probably after I try diamonds!
ReplyDeletelove the neutrals, subtle little jewels :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! And I know how sometimes we need to shift from one project to another!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely project to switch to--it makes me feel good to know I am not the only one who will swap projects out just for a break!!! :) Thanks for hosting these Monday Morning Counts...I am just beginning to do EPP and this is so inspiring!!! Maybe one of these days I will actually link up and post something about my efforts! As for now, I am enjoying your book and pecking away at some diamonds and hexies!!
