Well, we are easing back into the Skill Builder Sampler today with a block many of you will be familiar with: a Wonky or Maverick Star. I am still waiting for our new camera to arrive - THANK YOU! for all of your advice - so I am sharing examples of Maverick Stars found on Flickr.
Luckily there is also a
great tutorial for Wonky Stars already written by Victoria on her blog:
The Silly BooDilly. It even finishes at 12 inches. Perfect!
Have fun! I will show you pictures of by blocks as soon as my camera comes in the mail. Next week I will also have a brand new tutorial of my own for a traditional block made wonky. It is seriously one of my new favorite blocks -- I can't wait!
Oh, this looks like fun!!
ReplyDeletelove these!! they look great!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, very belated but heartfelt congratulations!
ReplyDeleteAs for the wonky stars, I've been meaning to try them out for ages, so your idea for the block 26 is exactly what I needed, thank you :)
Congratulations and let's get started with a Wonky Star!
ReplyDeleteThis was so fast and fun. I was worried that it would be difficult with my perfection tendencies but it was fun not to have to stress about exact angles.
