but it's so teeny it's hard to photograph.
Anyone who's known me for more than a half an hour knows that I'm a pretty serious Trekkie. (I have double majors in TNG and TOS, with a minor in VOY. I am proficient with DS9, but it's an area I'm working on. Sooner or later I will get to ENT, and I'M ENTIRELY BESIDE MYSELF WITH EXCITEMENT ABOUT DISCOVERY!)
Star Trek has been a source of inspiration, and comfort, and fun for me since before I can remember, and making these blocks was a total delight.
When I finished piecing the block in the original classic-looking colorway (above with the whites and blues), I decided that I had gone invested too much time and energy to stop there, and a 2nd colorway just had to happen. This one should actually fit into the "2 Palette" quilt I started in 2014.
These tiny pieces are crazy even for me.

I love this total mess on the back!
Weirdly, my Star Trek fabric stash is not as impressive as you might think - I'm actually really selective in this department.
As always, thanks for reading!
Happy Star Trek Anniversary, and Live Long and Prosper!
