Stardust progress

I am having an enforced break from my AMH quilt. I have run out of fabric for the border pieces and I am reluctant to start sewing them together before I have finished all the cutting. This is because of too many incidences of bad quilty maths combined with a 'she'll be right' attitude.

So I rustled around in my basket of WIPs and shook the cobwebs out of my Stardust project. I got all enthused when I realised that I could start framing the star blocks. Even more exciting when I realised that my stars still have their points :-)



After all the blocks are put together there is a scrappy border to go on made up of little pieces of the star fabric. I'm hoping the overall look is 'quiet scrappy' (if there is such a thing!).

    The alternating gray frames definitely calm down the scrappy look - what a lot of lovely fabrics you have.

    There's nothing like a star quilt. It's going to be a sparkling one!
