Standard wisdom say when you are joining two pieces like this together you should get even 'ears' sticking out either side. I don't. I like to crease both pieces in the centre and line up the centres. To me it makes more sense for it to allign in the middle than at the edges.
So I got these done today, I'd not remembered how long piecing takes.
I will need another star to go into the centre of the giant star. I have more space to play with there so it might be a smaller feathered star or perhaps a larger Peaceful Star. Decision time tomorrow.
I got a phone call yesterday from Heide Stoll Weber. She had received her quilt and is delighted.... Phew! It will be shown on her stand in the French show this month and between shows will hang in the studio where she teaches. Stupidly I was in such a rush to send it to her, I forgot to add a label, duh. I'll make one tomorrow.
Your quilts are beautiful! As is your "baby".
