I have 10 of the 15 large stars finished for Oh, My Stars. I probably should have used the large size to do something more intricate (I will on the last 5), but I wanted to show some of the large-scale prints before they were cut into unrecognizable bits.
The directions are very good, and she is serious when she suggests using a scant quarter inch for seams. I wandered from that and ended up re-making two blocks. I went with pressing the seams open, which is something I’ve never done in quilt piecing, but I thought it might help with accuracy when I get to the smaller blocks. So far, so good.
Thanks to everyone who has left comments: Pam, Jaye, landscapelady, mcquilts, Diane, Angie. They are appreciated.
I’m linking up with Lee at Freshly Pieced.

You are blogging along! These larger prints look great. Love the green background too.
