What I 'm working on: Violet and Orange Sawtooth Stars

So, I'm still feeling shaky after the stomach flu, and our daughter has it now. Our son, on the other hand, seems to have caught the flu instead. Little boy's nose is runny, he's running a temperature and he is really tired. My poor little ones!

But I managed, with a slightly aching stomach and an overall tired body, to sew a little last evening. This was before little girl started throwing up.

So, how far am I on this project? The "Odd blocks color quilt nr 2" or "Violet and Orange Sawtooth Stars", like I'd rather call it. 

I have 9 violet stars done, and I have 11 blocks kitted and ready to sew. Those "wonder clip"-type of clips sure are handy for this; just clip together all pieces needed for one block and it's just grab and go. And I still have just 16 of the orange 16-patch centers sewn.

The one in the lower right hand corner is the first one I made, and it's points are gonna disappear when it's sewed together. But the others have nice points with nice seam allowances around them.

I still need to make 36 orange sawtooth stars, and (36-9) = 27 violet ones. And sashings etc, but what I most need is white background fabric. Otherwise, I can't continue at all.

And that is all I write for an update about this projcet. I need more white fabric, and I need to cut more orange.

I understand that Pinterest is useful for saving tutorials and photos for quilting inspiration, because I use it that way myself, and I'm okay with you doing that too - but PLEASE: "cite when you write". Give the creator some credit, will you? I have nothing against you trying to make something similar, or even selling it, but I'd like to get some credit for being your inspiration. Why? Well, because lots of crafts are passed down from person to person, and it feels nice to be able to say "yes, I taught you how to make that".

What I DON*T LIKE is you flat out stealing my photos and my written text.
