    Your centre is beautiful, now I am starting to think to myself umm what shall I do when it arrives here with me. I am in line to be receiving it when it's due round 4 - that will be next year then LOL.
    Love your colour choice & the border fabric is so cute. What range is it - I've not seem anything like it at all over here in the UK.
    Your NT looks wonderful to me, I understand what you mean when you say time comsuming, but I do love it too. :wink:

    I keep chopping & changing my mind as to what to make, then I thought as I was sitting staring at my wall above my sewing machine ooh I have this block here that I made at a workshop which I have no idea what I am going to do with. So I have decided to use it as my centre block for the IRR.
    I'll post a picture of it for you later. :D

    Tisha

    P.S: Just changed my avatar to the block I am going to use for my IRR Centre. Finished size is 12.5 inches.
    Tisha, I LOVE your center. I've never seen that pattern before - I see from others that it's a Mexican Star. Very cool and great colors too. I get it in Round 2 . . . ooh so much potential.

    My fabric was by Debbie Rodgers for Moda (that's what it says on the edge) but I can't tell you much more. I got it so long ago and only a yard or so each piece. Sorry no help there.

    Jennifer

    Ah ty - I'm really pleased you like the block - yes your second in line to add to my centre He He.

    This block is called "Spinning Star" I'll post you the link for the "Mexican Star" top I've made (but not completed :oops:) so you can see the difference :wink: http://www.quiltingboard.com/posts/list/21439.page

    Thanks for the info regarding your fabric, I will try to see if I can locate some. Don't ask me what I will do with it though :lol: I know I've got it bad :twisted:

    Ok, so I'm mostly done, I'm just assembling the rest of my small NYB with the centers... lots of tiny little 3" curves to stitch. Here's what it looks like so far, with all the blocks that are sewn together.

    What kind of material did you use for your label? What are the titles to your columns? I need help with mine.
