Adding Corners

The Midnight Garden star blocks are finally getting their corners attached.  Normally I'd attach the four corners to a block and move onto the next blocks.  In this quilt, however, I'm attaching one corner to four different blocks at a time.  I attached the first handful of corners one set at a time.  This week I tried doing two at a time and briefly panicked when it appeared I sewed a corner to the wrong block.  Each kaleidoscope foursome is unique, but it turns out a few of them look really similar.

Whew.

A Void

You wouldn't think an empty spot on my design wall would be cause for celebration but trust me, it is.  This hole indicates my first completed block in the Midnight Garden quilt.  More importantly it means I'm no longer avoiding this quilt (my shoulder and this quilt have both been a pain since mid-March).
