My day started with helping Terry take care of baby turkeys, garden work and a little house work. Then came piecing. Look at the two triangles. The one on the right has a nylon netting over the right side.
Why the netting?
The netting adds a darker shading, which makes the stars look 3-dimmentional.
This class is part II of the "Desert Rose" pattern. The class sample is in the background.
Here is one with a gold background...
...and a cream background.

Very clever idea to use netting to give a 3 dimensional effect.
Oh what a fun afternoon! I like the way the netting shades half of the diamond giving it depth. And it was great to see you, Mother, & Emily. How special!
What lovely quilt the girls made ... I wish you were closer to me so I can learn how to make the dessert rose.... I just love them... Hugs :)
