What a challenge for me....another scrappy quilt.....but I'm rockin' these wonky stars!
Here are the other 9 blues to make into blocks. I played it safe with the cream so all the stars will be the same in different backgrounds.
I swear, this drawer of blue scraps has grown even though I have taken fabric out for this quilt and for last months scrappy quilt-- Arkansas Crossroads.
It must be getting fluffed up each time I rummage through it.....
I had a hard time getting the hang of placing the triangles just right to get nice inner points that were not truncated when I assembled the block.
THIS
IS
HARD
....for me.
This was my first assembled block, I didn't like how the bottom 2 points came together at the center, but I thought, well, it's supposed to be wonky. I kept looking at it and finally, after I successfully made 7 other blocks, I had to take this apart and add a new square to the bottom. That flat space was totally annoying.
Much better....
I will be back with another update when I get to Clue #2!

Very neat!!!
ReplyDeleteMaking the star points deliberately wonky in this clue was difficult. I'm afraid many of my stars aren't very wonky. I decided to make each star completely scrappy. Clues 2 and 3 are quick to make.
ReplyDeleteI've made those stars before. They are fun. I'm a 'controlled' scrappy person. At least I'm trying (you, too).
