I opened a project box. These are hand-pieced twenty point star blocks that I'm calling Buzzsaw. I can't remember their real name. Anyway, I pieced these years ago, probably ten years ago or more and put them away for some reason. I can't remember if I had a plan on how to finish them or not. The box contains fabrics, templates, but no plan.
Maybe one of the reasons I put it away was because I ran out of one of the fabrics and I had no plan.
I put the blocks up on the wall. I was surprised at the placement. If I was making them today, I would have made five full blocks. That would have made it rectangular. But here it is - square.
I stared at it for a while and decided it needs sashing - or something...
I started auditioning some different sashings:
I went for a walk and when I got back I started cutting fabric and piecing sashings.
And here is what I have so far:
Now I'm thinking about what to put in the cornerstones. I was thinking about some kind of whirling star block that goes the other direction. Whirrr, whirrr....
Maybe I'll add something to the ends to make it rectangular, too.
