In the middle of the night, I put the rick-rack around this vintage block. It kind of makes it a bit modern, I think, not that rick-rack is modern. I will hand quilt this one.
Have a great day, everyone!!!

The rick-rack makes me think of the 60s. It often ended up on the clothes Mom made for me back then. It makes that star look really fun.
The next quilt is going to be a beauty. I once made a mini in that design using blues and browns, but I really love it in colorful wonderfulness! :)
That is a great book--I almost bought it once, but realized I had so many of the books from which they had drawn the patterns. For me there would have been a lot of duplication, but if you don't already have a lot of books of small quilts I think it is a fabulous resource!
That star block would be so cute, even without the rickrack, but that really makes it special! I too remember rickrack, but back in the 50's! Those pinwheels are going to make a really pretty project too. ---"Love"
The rick rack looks great on the star and with the fabrics. The block will sparkle with hand quilting.
I love using ric rac. your block looks fabulous!!
I've seen several quilts using ric rack this week. Nice block.
That will be such a pretty block quilted--love the rick-rack...hugs, Julierose
The rick rack trim to me gives it a vintage feel. Like maybe in the 1940's or 50's when rick rack decorated so many of our clothes and linens. It really makes your pieced area of the block pop.
So fun how we shift workers get creative ideas in the night... love the ricrac!
Love the addition of the Rick rack on the star block. Just the perfect touch!
Love the string star antique and the edges you are covering with the rick rack. I have that 101 small quilts book too. Love it!
The ric rac makes all those colors pop out! I liek it!
