Wonky Star Catch Up

I’m behind! 2 Wonky Stars, 1 TBT block, and some gifting mug-rugs are on my list this weekend. For now, I’m caught up with the Wonky Stars. These two blocks turned out great! My favorite is the green star on white, mostly because of the cute red cardinal that I managed to keep below the seam 🙂

Wonky Star 4

This week I made my fourth wonky star! I really love this block because the white points really pop against the red background. The ornament print squares are designed by Deb Strain from the Ho! Ho! Ho! line for Moda Fabrics. The colors are saturated, bright, and so cheerful! They pair nicely with Kate Spain’s wintery mitten prints 🙂 My star point placement is perfection this round…it’s taken me practice to get good placement for larger, wonky points. With such busy prints, I think larger points look better as the smaller ones from my previous blocks get a little lost. Placed my four blocks together to get the bigger picture and I love it! Thinking a lime green, maybe Moda Grunge, sashing will be the right touch to this Christmas quilt. Do you see the white snowflake print on the white points?

Wonky Star 3

Almost missed week 3 for the Wonky Star quilt along on Instagram! I finally got some sew time in today before the week comes to an end. I used my last set of Kate Spain’s hot cocoa print…I had 4…but I sewed the prints on the wrong side and trimmed before noticing. Down to two cocoa prints with correctly placed star points and added a cute dove and pine tree print, adorable!
