I need to make more tho so there are 'enough' stars when I get to the end of the year. I am also really enjoying the Squared Away project. Lots of scrappy goodness-speaking of which, don't put my name in the drawing as I can hardly close the lid to my green bin!Bernie Kringelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00753481379287809548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-68005646455825582002018-04-03T01:06:20.064-04:002018-04-03T01:06:20.064-04:00Your star blocks are going to be amazing with the ...Your star blocks are going to be amazing with the rainbow of backgrounds when the quilt goes all together, and I totally agree making them different colors is going to make the quilt even better.
