Quilt Progress Report

I have been playing with my Smokey Mountain Stars blocks.  Here is what I posted on Design Wall Monday.

After looking at the design wall for a day or so, I decided I wanted to try something different in the center of the stars.  I cut a few black centers and this is what it looks like now.

I am really interested in opinions.  What do you think?

While pondering this, I decided that I need to get started on my Scrappy Trips Around the World that  I am going to teach in Las Vegas next month.  Here is the first block.  I am using lots and lots of batiks.  I can’t wait to get a few more blocks done.

  1. I really like the addition of the black centers. It seems to make the stars more defined.

  2. I think it needs the black in the centers. It makes it more interesting, and gives the eye a place to stop and rest.
