Here is the evolution of "Stars in Her Crown."
The first group of fabric
The pattern.
(Designer Wendy Sheppard used a collection by Christina Graf.)
The first blocks.
More fabric (this includes some for NYB and some just because)
More blocks. See the difference in the colorway?
Back to the design wall
I asked online quilting friends for advice about the borders. "Orange inner, dark outer," was the consensus
I had to buy more of both of the border fabrics.
I attached the inner border. I attached the two side borders. The dark-ish blue fabric bothered me a lot.
I got out the seam ripper and removed the side borders.
I made four 6" NYB blocks for the corners.
There was just enough turquoise to make the four borders.
I appliqued eight stars (for "stars in her crown").
Hooray!
