Wonky Blocks!

Edited:  The giveaway is now closed.
And the winner is.....JULIE!  Congratulations! 

Yea!  They are done!

 Block 25 - Wonky Log Cabin.  I don't know that I will ever get tired of making wonky log cabins.  For this one I just grabbed a pile of scraps and started sewing.  Love it!

Block 26 - Wonky Stars.  I had some left over 5 inch blue dotted squares from a miscut earlier in the sampler, so I decided to use them in this block.  I love it when miscuts turn into precuts.  :)

 Block 27 - Wonky Fan.  Because the star was in cool colors I decided to do the fan in warm colors.  I really like how this one turned out.


And if you made each of these blocks leave a comment letting me know and you will be entered to win these Japanese fairy tale prints.  The giveaway will end Friday, April 6th at 8 am.  **edited to add: only one comment needed**

Next month we will be making blocks with odd shapes like tumblers, hexagons and apple cores.  I can't wait to try the apple cores!  I am a bit nervous, but we can do it!  Right?  ;)

Happy Spring!

P.S. I am working my way through the Skill Builder Sampler Flickr Group - I haven't been over there since January, Sorry! - and you guys are amazing!!!  I am seriously blown away!  Great job!

    I did all 3 and found them insanely satisfying - kind of like sewing without rules. Very freeing!!

    Oops sorry about the caps. What a great idea!
