Sneak Peek

star in a star block
August 2016
Last week, Marilyn and I had another Sisters' Sew-in, and this block is a sneak peek at the next Quilt of Valor in the works.

The center fabric is printed with the tiny blocks, but it almost looks like the centers of the Star in a Star blocks are pieced.

These fabrics are from my stash: the white fabric is one of the pieces Mary gave me a month ago. I plan to use more of Mary's fabric in the piano key border.

More photos to come. . .

    Such a pretty block! I've quilted some, but nothing an intricate as what you do.
    Blessings,

    I love the star! I sure would have thought the center was pieced, that is a great fabric. I like the outside fabric with the stars too. Hugs,

    Love it - such a strong visual with the blue star inside the red one.

    I think the real secret is the center fabric is not pieced together! Brilliant idea though. This will be a great quilt when done.
