I added two stars to my larger piece.
I feel like adding only two stars to the larger piece is major progress. I like the symmetry of the [kind of] rectangle. Somehow this looks like I am making something.
My plan is to make the piece big enough to cover a bed. I will slowly make the stars as I travel with the Grand President (HA! DH) then add them to the piece when I am at home.
I know it seems like I should be able to take this piece with me. It is, however, 1.5′ x ~1 foot and I want to keep it as flat as possible because of the cardboard EPP templates still inside. Making one at a time is better for travel.
I have a bin of stars that I have been making. I pulled out my bin of stars and picked some to add to the piece later. I made the stars and stored them in the bin thinking that I would just make the stars and put them together eventually. I couldn’t wait, thus I started putting the piece together into what you see above.
I love this. I really like the striped effect too. I don’t blame you for wanting to keep that flat. Looking forward to seeing more!
Are you planning to leave the all the papers in until the end?
No, I take them out as I go along, otherwise I can’t reuse them and will need to buy thousands.
This looks great so far!
Thanks! Small, but mighty!
