Yesterday's Stars
Paper Pieces Pattern "Yesterday's Stars"
I picked up this pattern way back, can't remember when. The back is dated 1999, but I think I got it about 6 years ago. Who knows. Time flies and far ago objects are father than you think. The pattern is a Paper Pieces Pattern call "Yesterday's Stars". It includes pre-cut shapes. I started my journey into English Paper Piecing (EPP) with this pattern...and oh does it show. I picked up this partially finished item and it needed some redoing. In the end, I decided not to go exactly by the pattern. I think I want to put some applique around...small items...maybe flowers. I have lots of 30's repro fabric so why not. So I made the white borders wider and added yellow corner blocks. In the mean time the top is kind of finished according to pattern...just a bit different. I'll post progress now and then on this quilt. In the mean time, I have more UFO's to work on. Nice to have so many...I'll never get bored.
