Another block for the birthday block swap - this one for Diane, who wanted (mainly) purple batiks with a cream batik background - the background is a bit less yellow than in the photo, though it's a fairly yellow crean. You'll no doubt recognise this star by now - amazingly, it seems to look good in any and all colour combinations. Which is handy. And surprisingly, I haven't got tired of doing it yet. I think because it's one of those deceptively simple blocks - it looks complicated, but the component parts are fairly straightforward, so it tends to come out well when paper-pieced. That's all for today, but then I did spend a good chunk of the day at school watching a Christmas performance...

As always -- lovely. Don't you love a good "utility" pattern that works well no matter what? Love the advent picks and all of the other goodies you've been getting!
Oh, so pretty!!
It looks great! My granddaughter is in a concert this week but DIL kindly informed me that she's only part of the choir and it might be a good one to miss. I don't mind missing a one hour drive through ice and snow to see a crowd of kids singing. Lol. If she had a main part it would be different.
That's really pretty Kate I'm sure Dianne will be pleased.
Karen
Gorgeous star, Kate
