Years ago Sparkle Jane took a notion and decided to cut 1-1/4″ squares. 1-1/4″?!? That is REALLY small. But, they sat in this box and after a while started to hum at me. Do projects ever do that to you? Just sort of seem to hum in the back of your mind, “I could be beautiful. Give me a chance.”
So, I started to piece, a little aimlessly at first. Just as a leader-ender project. Before I knew it, I was making 25-patches. Then, there were 25 of them.
By then there was too much invested to stop.
Next step was a sort of economy block layout. But, they didn’t feel finished.
Add some star points and fancy corners and you get….

THIS!
I originally called it “Tiny,” but now I call it “Star Kissed.” I am not sure that is its real name, though.
I visualize it with white sashing and tiny colored corner stones. And probably a really cool border of some kind.
This block is 10″, but it could easily be resized to sensible proportions based on, say, 2″ or 2-1/2″ squares in the center. What do you think?
