    Another 3 hours tonight. Slow and steady, just keep hacking away piece by piece. Surprising how well it goes in this bedroom.... :wink:

    My bedroom walls are cream - it would look great in there too!

    It would look very nice with cream. I keep kicking myself for not substituting a very dark yellow I got of the collection for the second color from the center. The one I used is actually a dark yellow with the indigo like underneath it but that gives it a green look in certain lights. I was concerned about the other dark yellow because it seemed so close to the background color. I think it would have been a better choice.

    The pattern is called No Diamonds In The Sky. I got it a Hancocks online.

    I don't like doing diamonds so this was perfect. It basically looks like a broken star.

    I'd like to make one for my grandson. Where did you get the pattern? I really like your color choices.

    Thanks for the info. I just checked Hancocks out. I like yours better than their picture. I hope they have the pattern in the store.

    Yeah, I don't much like the colors in the pattern picture either. It could go so many ways, pastels and brights to muted like mine. You'd think they'd make the picture more appealing than it is to sell the pattern.
