More from Helen's Lone Star

OK, I am 'deconstructing' the center of the star. I decided that the middle was just tooo bland. I have taken the corners apart and am inserting a small yellow star out of the same fabrics that I used in the tips. I have also taken one row from the perimeter of the quilt. I did this so that I could work better with the borders.

The first inner border will be ------you guessed it---half square triangles from scraps. The second border will be-------yes, that's right------half square triangles of the background fabrics. The second border is planned to be wide enough to do some appliqued vines and flowers. Then the third border will be----------haven't decided yet.

So, that is were I am currently with 'Helen's Lone Star'. Stay tuned for the next episode.
Have a great week,
