This is what I did while at my quilt retreat last week. I made tiny stars.Three inch stars.Seventy five three inch stars.I was inspired by this fabulous quilt by Gwen Marston.
It is simply stunning. The stars just sparkle in a sea of beautiful hand quilting.
I wanted to try a few other things while I was there but I just couldn't get away from the stars.
I took two suitcases of fabric because I never know what I will want to do until I am there. I didn't use much of what I took just lots of tiny pieces.My stars have print centers and solid points.I decided to use a different setting than Gwen used and calculated that I need 153 of the little stars. I am half way there!
I am having a lot of fun making them.
