Sun Rays

Oh boy!

This is the layout of the rays that will surround the black box. I had to sew them up this way first before I could add them to the quilt.

Of course, there are a couple of finicky things I have to work out before I add them to the box...

Inspiration

You can find inspiration anywhere, and sometimes a solution to a problem can be right in front of your face. Do you recognize this?

It's the logo for the American TV show "CBS Sunday Morning." It's on screen for the whole show, down there in the lower right hand corner. I'd been watching the show for over an hour this morning before I really "saw" it for what it could be -- a solution to how to arrange the "dresden plate" style "rays" that will surround the box on my Black Box Quilt.

I am so going to steal this idea.
