At last, I’ve found time to make my first block for Judy Laquidara’s Star BOM (block of the month). Judy is actually providing us with two blocks a month: one on the 1st of the month, the second on the 15th. I am glad to have this one done before the next one comes out. I’ve pretty much thrown my original color plan out the window. I’m going with the gold background instead of the cream I was planning on. I’ve also pulled a bunch of brighter colors from my stash (all solids or tone-on-tone), so I’m going to have a scrappy quilt after all. Actually, it will just be scrappy in the stars with the greens in all the stars for some continuity, so it will be more of a controlled scrappy. Just the way I like it!







Looks great! Love your gold background!
Love your color choice!
This block looks like the beginning of a great quilt to me! Like your color choices!
Very pretty. I’m a scrap quilt lover so I will be checking in on your blog for progress on this project!
I am going to try to make this one, too, Sue. Haven’t thought about colors. Better do that soon as I am going to do the first block later today or
tomorrow because block 2 has already been posted so I am “a bit behind” as usual.
