    I posted the EQ picture a while ago, so I guess it's time for a progress report. ;-)

    I have had everything all cut out for this for a while now, and all of the hst are sewn together and pressed open. Now it's just a matter of working through block by block and putting it all together.

    This is how far I've got.... this is the centre and the bottom row done. For an idea of size, the paper on the design wall is an A4 sheet with the IRR instructions printed out. So this is going to be a decent size when it's done!




    The fabric in the centre star will also be a nice wide border around the whole lot.

    No wonder it is taking you awhile! All those points would be enough to make me crazy.

    It is going to be great when you finish. The colors are striking.

    I remember this one Blue and wondered what was happening. Its looking good so far and it looks like it will be a really nice size when done. I still like your fab choices really well!

    It's actually not too hard.... but I *am* taking my time and making sure everything lines up... which involves lots and lots of pins!

    I'm loving the look, can't wait to see it done, and I'm already wondering how on earth I'm going to quilt it. So far I'm seing In The Ditch around the star outline, but I've got nothing after that.
