HipBees' July Queen Bee is the adventurous Indianna Dreams who requested these Scrappy Mini Star blocks using Cindy's handy tutorial.

| Four blocks |
In the interests of telling it like it is, these blocks are individually made up of 60 pieces each which is a lot of seams to tame to get the block to come in on size and FLAT. A consistent seam allowance and your iron will be your friend for these babies. I hope that Indianna Dreams will forgive my inconsistencies and that they will disappear into the quilt when it's all together.
The fabrics are mostly Lark, I think, and they really are effective in the scrappy deliciousness of these blocks. The secondary pattern is much more obvious when you add more and more blocks together. This should be a scrappy sensation when it's finished.
I never counted the pieces! I just went with the flow! It does sound more daunting when you addit up like that!
ReplyDeleteYou are a star doing the extra blocks. Thank you. They are lovely. Di x
ReplyDeleteWow! It's a are work block but worth the effort I think.

ReplyDeleteHoly cr*p that's a lot of bits. I'm now more forgiving of the 2nd set of spiderwebs lol
ReplyDelete60 bits .... I'm so sorry, I never counted them before I asked. It will look good when it's finished
ReplyDeleteOh, haven't they got a lot of pieces in them?!! They're gorgeous, though!
