The prompt for Round 3 was half-square triangles (HSTs). I was fortunate to have a goodly supply on hand in the appropriate colors so completing this round was a quick fix.
I have not attached the side strips because I want to see what Prompt 4 will bring. I might be able to incorporate it into the cornerstones.
While I had time on my hands -- and loose ends on the table -- I decided to see what I could do with some 9-patches before I put them in the Parts Department.
I love the colors and even ordered extra of the pink faux linen fabric from Connecting Threads. They were piled with a nice coordinating brown fabric so I am putting the 9-Ps on point in the brown. I'm thinking some kind of sashing will result in a fairly nice throw size.

I like your star
ReplyDeleteThe design with your HSTs looks great! I like the alternating greens and then a dark one. The 9 patch on point is pretty, too! Nice find in the parts department!
ReplyDeleteYour SAHRR is coming along beautifully! Pink and brown is such a pretty color combination. Enjoy your new project.
ReplyDeleteYour star looks beautiful! The pink faux linen sounds pretty.
ReplyDeleteI have always liked a pink and brown combination.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great to have units on hand? The pop of turquoise in the HSTs is just right.
