Yea, finished all the arcs tonight for the Bali Wedding Star. I think they are so pretty, look like feathers. I had fun just playing with different arrangements.
Made 97 in all, some look almost perfect (emphasis on ALMOST) and others are a little more not-so-perfect, but I think they will all do fine in the quilt.
I had to lay out all the pieces on my design wall, as I was so anxious to see how the colors are going to look together.
This is just a pinned up version as the papers are all on the back and it would not adhere to the wall. I am not sure I have it right, but this will at least give me an idea of how the colors play together.
I just love that shining star in the middle. With the shiny silver in the grey and the sparkles in the white, it really does seem to glow.
I think the arcs look ok, but I am not happy with the center fabrics that will make up the 4-patch. I am going to have to study some other quilts on line and see how they handled that center area. that dark blue/purple maybe ok, but the other is too red, I think.
So happy I have made it this far. Now the truly scary part....sewing the blocks together.
