These are my Lucky Stars BOM blocks on the barn wall. It was nice to see them altogether. I was on the fence about the more subdued block in the middle but I think it works in the whole grand scheme of things, especially if I make another block with a bit of the lighter mauve in it. I do think they are coming together nicely.
Other than that I have been making some more depression blocks in my black and white tv theme for my month of That Stash Bee. I have also been receiving blocks in the mail which is a heck of a lot of fun. I have almost all of them in my hot little hands and on the design wall but I need to make enough for a good size quilt.
Sign ups are happening for the Modern Scrappy Bits Swap on Flickr. Round 4 people! Sign up!
I also made a mini quilt for the Modern Mini Challenge at Ellison Lane Quilts. But that is for tomorrow!

Lovely stars. I think the more subdues one provides a nice counterpoint and allows each to shine, while working as a whole too!
