It’s only the 4th of May and I’m finished with my May stash bee block! Our assignment this month was to make a wonky star block. I was so relieved that it was something besides appliqué.
I like how this one turned out. I did have to rip out about 3 or 4 seams. I sewed a couple pieces on upside down and had one star point off. I’m pretty sure sewing while under the influence of cold medicine is not a good plan. I probably should have waited to make the block but thankfully, it turned out pretty good.
Now I’m thinking it might be kind of fun to make a wonky star quilt. Like I need to make any more tops before I quilt all the tops that are waiting patiently.
I also got a bundle of goodies in the mail yesterday. Awhile back I won a Fat Quarter Shop gift certificate and here’s what I picked out…
I got myself some Art Gallery fabrics. Who knows what I’ll do with them but they’re soooo pretty!
Here’s a little tidbit of fun. We’ve decided to have a giveaway as soon as we hit 300 followers! We’re only 8 away so tell your momma, tell your daddy, tell all your friends! Tweet about it, blog about it, yell it from the rooftops {maybe I shouldn’t blog under the influence of cold medicine either}. Help us find 8 new friends and we’ll have an awesome giveaway. Maybe a bundle of those great Jennifer Paganelli prints we recently received…or maybe a jelly roll or layer cake…I just can’t decide!
Love those wonky stars, Vicki! The fabric colors go together beautifully.
Love the blocks! Putting a shout out on my Sew BitterSweet Designs fb Page – everyone loves an awesome giveaway!
Oh, I just love your star block! I think it is the prettiest I have ever seen. Hmm, if this is what sewing under the influence of cough medicine produces, I think I might start… 😉
Love your block with those stars, great color combinations. Jane
