Stars, I'm Seeing Stars

Yesterday I brought Stars back to my Thursday stitch group. And I was so delighted that I came home and continued to work on it. Outside. On the deck. With sunshine!!!

And that's when I figured out that I had left something out on Cary Grant. Those pink sprats head that form the center square were supposed to have a mirror image. Okay. In this photo you can see two of them. I managed to stitch them without removing those two bottom isosceles triangles.

I finished the sprats heads and the triangles - the blue part. Next up, fill in the triangles with the neutral color. I sit there considering using my accent color, green. I ponder. And think. And eventually decide that Tony knows what he's doing and stitch the first one with accent color.


And that's when I again confirm my evil genius diagnosis of the man. When you put the neutral in this spot, it makes a circle around the square. Duh.


But of course, this being Stars, next I mostly cover those four neutral stitches with pink criss cross crescents!

Thus ends my stitching on Stars for Thursday. But with a little bit of luck, I'll be able to finish off Cary Grant today. And will officially have reached the halfway point on this piece. Phew.

Very pretty. I love the blue color of your sashings. Can you tell us what Silk N Color you chose for your colorway?
