It's fun to sort them a little bit and consider some settings...
On point with zig zag...
Alternating dark blocks (this brown is from Barbara Brackman - I love it):
Just the light-background stars (maybe?):
In the end I like the chaotic mix of lights and darks with plenty of the "cross" style blocks thrown in...
So this will be the base for Time Warp Quilt #1 (twin-ish sized, with a primitive-style applique border, probably!)
Let the construction commence!
Meanwhile, summer has flown by...
Peaches from the tree in our backyard... can only mean... Peach Cobbler Time;).
I really like the "cross" blocks, and I've only made a few that way -- I'm going to remember to do more. Good plans for your stars!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanne - it started out sort of accidental but I like the variety!
DeleteI really like your 3rd choice for Time Warp quilt # 1, the cross blocks add that extra interest to the movement of the quilt. I'm looking forward to seeing the quilts coming to life!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's so fun to audition various ideas;).
DeleteIt's wonderful to see your stars auditioned in various settings. I've been thinking about zig-zag or alternate set, too. I love your final choices especially the one with all the stars together! Your peaches are beautiful and your cobbler looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteBarbara, thanks! Barbara B. has given us so many great setting ideas - isn't this fun?
Deletewow your stars are so so great. Hasn't this been fun!? I'm doing a zig zag set for mine. lucky you to have fresh peaches!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you do Barb, because your quilts are FAB!
DeleteWow, you have a lot of fabulous stars! I started making 2 or 3 each week and now I'm lucky to get 1 done! I love both settings. I m a sucker for on point, but your #1 setting with all that color and dark and light prancing around is sensational. Love them all!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Wendy! Yes.... I am realizing that I will need to make plenty of "extra" stars to pull off two quilts... but, sawtooth stars are unfailingly fun to make, addictive even!
DeleteBeautiful quilts and fabrics--that peach cobbler looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteThank you - and yes in fact another cobbler is in the oven even as I write this;).
DeleteI love your#1 layout, that mix of lights & darks with the crosses dancing around is just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda - thanks for stopping by and for your nice comment;). I clicked on over to your blog and subscribed on bloglovin - looking forward to seeing your projects!
DeleteI love both sets using the stars!! Peaches have sent my hubby to the ER 2x now! I try not to have them around the house to tempt him because he loves them so much.
ReplyDeleteLori, oh my goodness!! Stay safe! ;).
DeleteThese quilts are going to be amazing! It is so fun to play around with different settings.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your plans for your stars!! I didn't do this sew-along because of all the projects I already have in the works. And it's probably for the best, but seeing yours coming together makes me wish even more that I had!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
