Making some stars
In the morning light, I trimmed.
The quarter square triangle units just glow. Oakshott Lipari shot cottons with Essex linen in light grey.
So shiny.
One more picture while the sun was up.
Later I finished sewing. These Ohio stars finish at 3" square.
I need more green ones, but it is late now. I will put them in the sun in the morning and take more pictures. And make more green ones, and then make them into something nice.
I worked hard this week and the lurgy is lurking again so I am taking it easy in the hopes of fighting it off. There were naps and healthy food in between star making. And tea.
I hope you are enjoying your weekend.
Best,
Leanne
