Scraps and Strings: String star on the wall

Monday, 27 February 2012

I made another set of HST and now I'm auditioning them for placement.

Originally I had planned to make the star float in green and then add borders.

Now I'm wondering if this double star effect is better.

I'm planning on making this baby quilt size.

I'm linking up to Judy's design wall Mondays.
