Progress with fish fabric |
For the last few days, I've been hand piecing my fish fabric Texas Stars and one inch hexagons. This is my progress so far. I started out with 33 Texas Stars. Here I've used 32. One lonely star left out. See the pink/blue star to the left of the photo? I think I'll use her in the label. I plan to continue with hexagons all around as a border to the stars...perhaps several layers of Hexies. I have no idea how I will end up with this. That's the fun of it...create as you go kind of thing. Time to press it. I've pressed as I pieced but now I believe my little project can do with another pressing before I begin adding the Hexie borders........tick-tock...OK pressing done.

Pressed |
Pressing is time consuming. I find it much easier to press each star as I go and when a row or section is finished to press that section.
