Cordelia - The stars are not applique, they are paper pieced with wax paper. I had alot of fun making that quilt and I love it too.

I really wanted to do a folded ribbon border but After many many MANY hours of staring at it I felt as if it needed to be stopped so the borders could continue to tell the story later. Sooo if it could come back to me later then umm I could get that done! LOL

Thanks, everybody, for the encouragement. I had ulterior motives for posting that pic -- so I could get a little feedback. There are all kinds of things I can do, but my problem with that block is I don't have the skill to do curves. I wanted to sort of do a meandering drunkard's path on it and accentuate the circle.
But, I don't have the skill to do that. But, that border can be paper pieced and I can do a good job with that one.
Bettelove, I actually go to the dollar store and buy the gift tissue and actually do my paper pieceing with that.
But, does wax paper tear away easier because it's waxed? I have a good deal of parchment paper around the house. That's not waxed, but close.
I think I'll try that with my border.

I like to trace the paper piecing patterns onto muslin and pretend it is tissue and then I don't have to tear it off. It stays on with the block.
