finished Paula Nadelstern block
I just posted a picture of my first attempt at Paula Nadelsterns
kaleidoscope blocks. Early this morning I decided how I'm going to quilt it, so today I will begin that. I'm thinking of a few clear seed beads to dress up the inner star.

You are a brave and wonderful person! That block makes me feel like I've been
sewing with mittens on my hands! Congratulations! joan (slinking back to my sewing machine) I just posted a picture of my first attempt at Paula Nadelsterns kaleidoscope blocks.

I don't think it needs shiny tings to dress it up, but they certainly will add to its many attractions. I'd be torn between wanting to quilt a spiral (to watch it spin) or rays, or like the stitching lines of a radiant beauty (concentric circles with points between). -georg

That's true, I haven't really decided what to do in the sky. I'm doing some
SITD in the star itself. I think I'm leaning toward the spin look, as I pieced the background to give that effect with the seams already. They disappeared though.

My Queen, it is fab! I love your background fabric. I would add
sparklies to the inner star, and also to the night sky BG. Nice points and color choices. Love all of Paula's work. Nancycog in MD

That's beautiful Karen! Congrats.
-- Kathyl remove "nospam-" before mchsi http://community.webshots.com/user/kathylquiltz I bought a rhinestone setter and Austrian crystals at the Houston show. I'm thinking how wonderful some sparkle would look with a block like that. The gal I bought them from makes quilts that remind me of Paula's. http://www.cheriscrystals.com/ At the bottom of the page is a link to her quilts.

I bet some beading along those diagonal seams WOULD really bring out the
rays the way you hoped! -- Cindy Bettinger; http://photos.yahoo.com/cbet_99 http://www.one-eleven.net/~music/ http://simplymusic.net "Queen of Squishies" hicall80 @ earthlink.net wrote in message nk.net...
