Galaxy of Stars

The block

Last night I sewed down the last bit of binding on my starry scrap quilt which was begun in a workshop with Katharine Guerrier and is patterned in her book Scrap Quilt Sensation. It really is a true scrap quilt and so enjoyable to see the different combinations of fabric as all the HST's are joined. The block is a six inch star bordered by twelve half square triangles and the effect is derived from the arrangement of light and dark. However I have seen more colour coordinated versions and the result reflects ones personal stash and fabric tastes.
