I decided to join the SAHRR (Stay at Home Round Robin) hosted by Quilting Gail this year.
Monday Round 3 was released by Gail. She was the person to determine what the round would be this week. Stars.
She chose the Friendship star, as did I.
I chose this star because of its relative simplicity and because, in keeping the story of my life theme, I have had a lot of friendships throughout the years, and I have always tried to be a good friend.
I'm reminded of the poem Reason, Season, or a Lifetime.
As long as I've been quilting, 20+ years, I don't think I've ever made this block. And the simplicity? Not!! Making sure the HSTs are turned the right way was a challenge.
So far, I'm still working current with the challenge. But I will get behind on Round 5. My sister is escaping the snow that week and she's not a quilter so there will be little time in the studio.
I have another block picked out that I really want to use for one of the rounds. If I can't squint my eyes just right to make it work, I'll substitute it for one of the chosen blocks.
Until next time...
Wishing you more stitchin time than I will have.
