'Starlight Diverging' Blocks for Christmas Tree Skirt

This paper-pieced pattern is by Soma Acharya of Whims and Fancies.  She designs the most intricate, beautiful paper-piecing!  Here is the pattern on Craftsy:  Starlight Diverging

The fabric in these blocks consists of satin, taffeta, brocade, and raw silk.  The background is satin.  The blocks measure 10" unfinished.





Here's a shot with the flash off:

  1. Beautiful. On the whites, did you use a polished cotton, perhaps satiny or did u use what kind of whites? Where do we find the pattern for the blocks?

    3. I sent you the link by email, Carol. Let me know if you can't get to it. Perhaps the trouble was that the link above split into two lines.
