Halfway Square

I've been filling in the gaps in my little English Paper Piecing project. Two sides are now done and I think it is coming together nicely. I would offer up a better photo but the skies opened just as I placed it upon the trampoline surface (one of my preferred backdrops). I took this off-centre shot in record time and beetled back inside.


As I look at this project coming together I have decided that another thing I like about all these angles is the stars are slightly rotated so they don't all sit at the same angle to each other. This appeals to my off kilter brain.

I am going to spend my afternoon finding my way around Northampton in search of the music centre so Helen can do her violin exam. I am not familiar with Northampton at all. The music centre is right in the middle of it. I think I had best give myself extra time to find it. Just saying.
