Here
is
Thursday's
Apple
Star
AND
Here is Friday's Autumnal Star
I am making one star per day; do you have a "routine" that you set up for
repeat blocks?
I really enjoyed figuring out how I wanted to set up the steps
in making these stars....somehow knowing that by heart now, gives me a great
deal of satisfaction and pleasure...
no fiddling about, no wondering "what next".
Just picking the squares, and the center, and deciding the star point colors;
then row by row, always ironing the seams open...and VOILA!! 😻 Instant
happiness and gratification...
I am a person who likes repetition...
I think this must come from my piano background
when I would go over and over a section to get it
just right....maybe??? And never got sick of doing it that way....
My Ojos strip blocks and even log cabins fall right into this method....
**************************************************************
In thinking back on my quilt making processes, I see that my choices of blocks
and strips fall on this method of a "routine"; and maybe that is why I've
never made any quilts with all different blocks...
I do think they are beautiful--- like especially:
LORI'S (click to see this beauty ) "Sweet Liberty" quilt.
I am so drawn to this.....
but have never gone down that road...
the closest I've come are the very few applique
pieces I've made .
Soooo, What is your favorite quilt making method (s)??

I hope this wonderful refreshing, cooler weather has come to your home....
hugs for a super weekend....
