Stars into Ornaments

I finally sat down yesterday to sew the stars to their backing fabric. They look pretty good. There are lots of thread ends to clip and then I needed to clip the inner corners and points on each star.

Some Christmas ornament stars in traditional Christmas colors of red and green.2014-05-09 10.06.06

 

Also some lovely non-traditional Dr Who Tardis Christmas ornament stars. Each star has a mother of pearl button in the center. I have about ten more but they are needing the handwork and I am rushed right now.  These will be listed in the ChocolateDogStudio.esty.com shop soon!

We are in the midst of taking a break on cleaning for graduation and Mother’s Day. Why is it that Mother’s day takes so much work from Mothers to make it happen! ;0) We will have several lovely days of family!

Talk to you later,

Karen

I spent a day combing through my scraps and cutting out diamond shapes.

It was an easy thing to do and still feel like I was accomplishing something. I cut out tons and then I put them together to get these neat little stars.

I’m so proud of the points matching in these two stars. I think I have finally figured it out.

See  the perfect points in the middle! Can you guess what I am making in the studio these days? I have some others finished and waiting on some photos but it is too dark today. We are finally getting some rain so I am not complaining. I hope that it cuts down on the wildfires that we have had. There have been some huge wildfires in Oklahoma and many people have lost everything. So, our area has been under a red flag, which means no fire pits, no cook outs, no burning of any kind.

There is too much to do today. We are in the midst of printing out 300 graduation programs and are running low on toner. One of the nice things about having your child in public or private school as there are details that you really do not have to deal with, like printing graduation programs!

I will talk to you later!
