I love the play of colors. That is one heck of a lot of HST!
I want to applaud you for taking the time to "deconstuct" I'm afraid I would have put it in the UFO pile for "later" Good for you! It's going to be gorgeous! Toni
Wow! I'm with Toni - I think it takes a lot of strength of character to stop - take it apart - and do it again! Still - its almost always the right thing to do - what an inspiration - I'll remember next time I have to do it! thanks!
looking good
How lovely! tough quilt to make for sure but the end result will be spectacular!
Really striking. Just today I was thinking about making a Lone Star but I will have to do a little more thinking about it.
That's a lot of work to take it apart, but you would never have been satisfied if you had not done this. Your ideas are looking great to me!
