While Shooting Star is being basted, I'm working on a quilt for our guest bedroom.
My daughter chose the colours and fabrics to complement a picture on the wall.
I suggested the pattern, and then did lots of math to work out the sizes of the squares and how to put them together into manageable sections.
Here's how it looks so far:
The squares can fit together in lots of different combinations and orientations, and that gives me the really random look I wanted. DD doesn't like random and keeps trying to impose order!
I made lots of progress on the squares at a recent quilt retreat, and had some great advice about including the largest squares. Without that advice I wouldn't be so far on with the quilt. I estimate I have about 2/3 of the squares I need.
