WIPS - Back to the Stars

It's been a while since I've posted anything about my works in progress (WIPs).  Work deadlines and a two week vacation will do that to you.  It was really nice to get back into the sewing room last weekend and play with some fabric.  Being out of pocket most of June meant that I didn't finish the teal twinkle stars for this year's Rainbow Scrap Challenge. Only three of the six blocks for planned for June are up on the design wall.  


Twinkle Stars, Tutorial by Andrea Feldbush of Soscrappy


The star points on the first star look black, but are really a very dark red-violet.  They just didn't photograph that way.  The last three stars will be teal with teal star points.  Hopefully I can get the last three done and then start on this month's color which is red.

Always love seeing your twinkly progress. I've got this block earmarked for a possible RSC16 next year, thanks to what you are showing us.

LOVE these stars! And you're doing such a great job on the colors. It's going to be such a happy quilt. Also, I love the new blog header. (And if it's old, forgive me - I'm still catching up from June!)

It always amazes me how different a block can look depending on the fabric choices. All your stars are very pretty!
