He's Back!
My favorite design husband returns, sporting the latest two blocks from the languishing BOM. He claims this is his last modeling gig; we shall see.
I made a cutting error on one of the blocks and dug into the scraps I had on hand and cut new pieces from a slightly different fabric for two sets of HSTs; I think it looks nice and prolly no one but the designer would know what happened. The other block, the Rising Star, went together very cooperatively.
Pam's care package of scraps and left-over fabric came in yesterday's mail. I hope that on Sunday I'll have time to do some perusing and cutting and event some stitching. I know how I want to set them, but I don't want to order the fabric until I see how they all look together and am sure that what I have in mind will work. I like the browns so much and want to use them with perhaps a gold for the lattice, cornerstones and borders. The pattern calls for reds and greens and golds, but I think I'd really like the browns.
Stay tuned!
And -- Donna -- how's your progress? Or are you too busy drinking champagne to care?
