I finally finished piecing the last feathered star block only to realize I don't like those two bottom light blue tips. I should have seen it before I pieced it but I didn't. I am so done with this project that I'm even considering coloring in the light blue flowers with a fabric marker. Instead after I've decided I can and will do it, I'll probably rip out the two tips and replace them. I don't like redoing anything.
The next challenge is finding sashing, cornerstone, and border fabrics which don't compete with the feathered stars. I doubt I have enough of anything in my stash but I'll spend some time next week looking through my Kaffe Fasset tubs of fabric.
This was part of my flower garden after the rain earlier this week. Next week we are expecting high temperatures to reach into the low 90's. It won't look so lush and pretty then! The weeds are already growing and I'm pulling what I can daily.
I'm not looking forward to next week's heat but I am looking forward to having my first hair appointment in three months! My hair currently reminds me of the shag style I wore in high school.
Have a great weekend! I'll be working on a landscape project.

Hi Mayleen,
I must say... I do really like your feathered star blocks... in fact I love them! Wow... you had so much rain lately? We have had too little for a few months now. And summer has already started here, so we are a bit worried. But I understand what you mean about your hair being cut: mine was done this morning and I feel so happy! Have a great weekend and "stay cool" next week!
