Very pretty. As for sewing star blocks, or any blocks for that matter, we always need to think about value. It's a difficult term to describe - the lightness to darkness of a fabric - but it's definitely worth knowing about. An interesting fact - quilters (especially new quilters) are most often drawn to medium value prints. We must work hard to include lights and darks in our selections. That's a good reason to buy light value fabrics whenever you step into a quilt shop.FlourishingPalmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13191140553844000267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953693419316837046.post-14231109486335655522010-03-15T00:24:48.193+10:302010-03-15T00:24:48.193+10:30It is your quilt & you can make it the way you...It is your quilt & you can make it the way you want.
