Last weekend my oldest UFO was moved out of it's box and back on to the design wall. Some time was spent during the week rearranging the blocks, taking some out, putting others in till the final layout looked balanced. The original pattern called for neutral setting triangles, but none of the fabrics used for the star backgrounds seemed to work. After looking at how much fabric was left, I decided that the red border fabric would also work as setting triangles.

I'm really happy with how it's coming together.
That's it for my design wall this week. See more design walls over at Judy's Patchwork Times.

I like the look of the blocks on point. Well done
It's lovely xx
The red print is an excellent choice for the setting triangles. By using it the tan/beige stars pop. Isn't it interesting how a project you get stuck on, often to the point of languishing in the UFO box for a long time, turns out to be not-so-hard after all?
Love that one. Great choice of fabric if you ask me.
Really liking the colours in this quilt!
Oh I hear ya girl. (Although I admittably was a little excited to return to a new school year today!) But ya....soon MOnday's will be tough esp after such a productive weekend!
Exciting to move ahead so quickly! It looks vibrant and lovely
Good choice to use the red print for the setting triangles.
I LOVE that!! I like the reds in the setting triangles... Great job ( Don't go to work... it's overrated lol)
Lovely quilt, you really must finish it. Says me with I don't know how many UFO's.
Your stars look great, and I love that red fabric for the setting triangles!
