I need some help!! I can't figure out how to position the fabric so it will cover all the area I need to cover and I can't find Margo's instructions. Someone please help!!

All the January blocks look terrific. I love the one with the dark brown background. Terrific choice of fabrics. I have my fabrics selected but haven't done any sewing yet.

Well, I decided to select all my fabrics for the quilt today and had planned on using just my stash. But, lo and behold, I didn't have enough of the 1-1/2 and 2-yd pieces. So off to the LQS I went and bought more fabric. I am using all batiks and so far am very happy with the chosen fabrics. I'm trying to stay away from blues/pinks/purples so it will have lots of greens and browns. Tomorrow I will begin cutting and sewing. YEAH!

You have all done a fantastic job (FAST) and make me even more eager to get underway! (Didn't know it was possible to be MORE eager. :P

This is going to be so much fun to see the fabrics and what they do to the blocks!

Barbara (bbquiltmaker,) your star is wonderful and I'm glad you're the one having to choose the next fabric, not me. I like all your choices. I'm already very confused on what I'm going to use on mine! I don't think a month of thinking about it is going to help much, either!!

I've just posted my January feathered star--I'm very happy with it. There are several possible fabrics with it or I might do something else--I've got a month to decide.


With any luck this will take you there:

Well, I finished my feathered star, too. I posted the picture in the show and tell area. This link MIGHT take you to it!

I'm not sure all my intersections quite match where I sewed the subsets together, but from two or three feet back, it looks fine, and that's good enough for me! :D

I would love to see your block but when I click on the link you give it keeps coming up with query empty.

Any idea what to do any one?

Thanks. Mary Noel

I have all the initial parts pieced, and will put it together today. It is like putting a jigsaw puzzle together. I found there was a rhythm to doing the pieces, and fortunately had no unsewing to do.

Elaine, your daughter's block is fantastic. The chocolate brown background made the star pop! How wonderful that you get to share your quilting with your daughters!

Linda, Love your batiks! The color combo is super!
