Fun day............
I had friends over to sew yesterday and I got one table cleaned off and cut the rest of the sashing strips I needed for these 35 batik star blocks. Here is the last time you saw these blocks. I ran out of the first sashing fabric but found another batik that was a close match and this has been laying there for 2 1/2 years waiting for me to work on it again. I have the sashing sewn on one side of all 35 blocks and need to decide on a cornerstone fabric now.
Last night I got a postage stamp block designed and sewn. I plan on doing more of them this week.
I have more blooms on the cactus, only on one branch on this plant.
The white ones are so pretty.
Tonight my pop-up shop closes at 10 pm EST, last chance to visit it.

Those star blocks are so pretty! Isn't amazing how time flies and you find a UFO that won't take too much to finish. I was cleaning up two bookcases in my studio this weekend and kept thinking about what I might find. I actually found some stuff I forgot I had/misplaced - two charging blocks for my iPhone, another Fitbit tracker unit, a wad of money, and a omelet recipe I thought I had lost.
Those batik stars are going to make a stunning quilt, Wanda!!
I look forward to seeing the added sashing to your star blocks. I checked out your completed star design and they are amazing as is. But knowing your design talent your stars will glow, with the added sashing.

I love this time of year with your indoor garden photos. And congrats on moving those beautiful stars forward after a long hiatus.
I have always loved those batik stars and still do. Can't wait to see it together.
My Christmas cacti have not even begun to think of blooming. Yours are so pretty. And I DO like those star blocks!
