Yesterday I put my Star-A-Day blocks up on the wall just so it wouldn’t be empty this week. Not that I didn’t work on other things last week (Scrappy Trips and “matching” pillowcase). Since the first of the month I’ve completed 8 new stars. I think I need to kick it in gear since I would like to make about 45 this month.
On the ironing board is Jared Takes A Wife. I’m off to quilt it later this morning.
The Christmas BOM is the big news. Saturday I got the borders on the quilt! I’ve found the backing fabric in my stash. Now I just have to figure out how I’m going to quilt it and what color thread to use. Needless to say, this quilt top is going to have to age a bit.
See what others have been up to by following the links over at Patchwork Times.
The stars sparkle! The thumbnail picture of your Christmas sample caught my eye in today’s linkup. Probably quilting each block individually will be the best (albeit most-time consuming) course.
Oh my, how big are those stars? There’s so many….I think I see the big dipper in there!
You are zomming on the UFO’s and stars. 45 is a LOT to make in one month. Have fun quilting your JTAW. The Christmas quilt is busy so just do an allover Christmasy panto.
