I am not 100% sure of the colour selection for the Bali Pops pack I chose.
It all looks good when you are only seeing a very small piece of each fabric - until you open the packs and discover there are some very weird patterns included, and not all of them are Batiks!
At this point I am happy to continue and am intrigued as to how it is going to look with it's stormy Grey/Blues and Mauves and Aquas. - Well, I DID ask for Ocean colours!!
In the meantime - I am wondering do I 'take a break'
OR do I go on with something else?
Take a break - yeah right!!!
Seeing I am in the mood for Foundation Paper Piecing, what better "Something Else" is to get my JINNY BEYER - Crystal Star out of the box and under the machine!

I thought I'd made a start on this last year - but - I have just checked back through my Blog Posts and discovered it was EXACTLY 2 years ago ...
It was nice to open the box and find 90% of the project all cut out and more than adequately labelled.
A cup of tea later, and I was reacquainted with where I was - and ready to sew.
I have decided to work on this as a distraction or a 'fill in' between projects or when I just need to do something else.
As the sections are self contained it is possible just to pick it up and put down anytime.

How far do I get this time? - - - Only time will tell!
Two beautiful projects!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry. Everything will blend. Stand across the room. If it still sucks, pull out the seam ripper. Simple plan.
ReplyDeleteI really like the Crystal Star pattern. It will be fun to watch it progress.
