Following the Beothuk Star



My Beothuk Star is shining bright today. 





with this lovely 



I played around with the fat quarters and yardage I had 
until I came up with this plan for Version 3.




I  played with the fabric and the layout because I wanted to 
use a square of the sea glass shards on white in the center on my stars.
It also required me to sew the quilt into three sections:
 a top section and bottom section
and a center strip. 

When I studied the layout above I decided to add some of the white
 to frame the dark blue center .


I achieved this by sewing sew and flip squares to the blue background corners,
giving this a "star in a square" look.


I really like the focal point this adds to the center of the quilt.


I also decided to "float" the stars by adding an inner border strip 
of the white glass shard fabric.


When I added the outer border, I added star points
with sew and flip corners to the blue background strips.


I am really happy with how this quilt top looks!

I am linking up my completed to the
