Improv Stars...Design Wall

 

I have been stitching together

Improv Star components since November...



Now that the design wall is cleared off,

it is time to put them up on the wall...





These go together like a jigsaw puzzle...

the star blocks are not square,

they intersect one another.






I have a limited amount of the

black and white surface design fabric

that I created, so I don't know

how far I can go with this design...





15 Star Blocks up on the wall...











Time to cut out the background fabric

and fill it in to create an edge treatment

around the star blocks...





At this point, the left side corner

has the background fabric

placed around the edges...





All 24 star blocks are on the wall

and I am hoping I will have enough

of the background fabric for

the bottom edge....





Whew....I made it!

Not sure if there will be an additional

edge treatment at this point,

but it is ready to be pieced together.





The seams are every 2.5 inches apart...

this will take some time to piece.



Our neighbor has these cool looking cattle:


It lives across the road from one of our barn lots.

Very Friendly !





Look at those horns....wow!
