Sky's The Limit - Star #5....

Star #5 of 16 is one designed by the Quiltmaker's Shoppe in Arlington. The rules for the shop owners are that we cannot change the design of the block, but we can change the size. In other words, instead of a finished 9" block, we could choose to make it 8" or 6" or 3" if we wanted to, as long as we do not change the actual pattern. I bet you can tell just by looking at this one, that it was not one of the ones we chose to "shrink"! Those little half square triangles were not going to be made any smaller if I wanted any help from Team Fab-Etc! It did turn out nicely, though, don't you think?

Hey - did you notice that it snowed today?!? Well, maybe that means it will all be out of the system by the time the "event" happens this time at the end of March? So, as you might guess, it was a little quiet today at Fab-Etc. Diane was supposed to work, but since she has a 60 degree slope to her driveway and lives just east and high enough to get more snow, I told her not to try and come. I cleaned a bit and played some more with the blue/white fabric. And we have a Gucci Bag class scheduled tomorrow morning, so I got ready for that.

Tomorrow, Jan and I will move some more fabric around while the class is going on and then maybe start picking fabrics for Set 10 of our Block of the Month program. It should be a fun day at Fab-Etc! Hope you have a wonderful day too. Stay warm tonight!
