Starburst QAL

I will be using a solid white for the background fabric. I still need to add a couple more fabrics.

Yesterday, I joined up with the Starburst QAL and it is all BillieBee's fault. I certainly cannot be blamed for wanting to participate because the star blocks are just so darn wonderful.

The first block was posted on Monday but I haven't made mine yet because I have only just chosen the fabrics that I want to use. I woke up really early - 2:30 am early - and I started looking through my fabrics and decided on the primary ones but I didn't have enough secondary options. I needed a consult with my sister Cheryl but she had the nerve to be sleeping. :) I know she checks her email shortly after she wakes so I started sending them to her at around 7 am. I was just so excited about this project and I wanted to know if I would be able to shop her stash for just the right fabric.

After much jibber jabbering consultation by phone I think we have figured out what she has in her stash that will supplement what I already have. She is going to be visiting me early next week for a little sewing retreat at my place and she will bring more solid red, a complementary blue fabric and more of the red background with squares. We both bought the same red with squares fabric some time ago but I used almost all of mine and I really do have just a scrap left. I am really looking forward to her visit and the fabrics she will be bringing with her!

It's not too late....you can join in the fun too!
