Our theme is Oriental using Asian fabrics. Just FYI--the triangles remaining as a result of the cut offs of the 2" squares used to make the inner octagon are the perfect size to use in lieu of the 1 1/4" squares for the corners of the gold outer squares. I just cut off the dog-ears first. Thanks for the free pattern.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348317753715681760.post-52698147876969467192011-12-06T05:16:16.998-06:002011-12-06T05:16:16.998-06:00Too bad you had to unsew.

Our tree (a live one) tradtionally goes up on Christmas Eve (due to the heat) and comes down on January 6! So I'm nowhere near thinking about Christmas in the decoration sense! AS for shopping, I will do all that next Tuesday when I go out to get my haircut! The hairdresser opens at 9am and the departement store is open 24 hours so arrving at the shopping centre at 7am should see me done by ten!Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760744006915967397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348317753715681760.post-18425589868942867202011-12-05T15:23:32.071-06:002011-12-05T15:23:32.071-06:00Oh my goodness Kate those stars look stunning.
