Leftovers and Pinwheels

Inspired by Amanda at Crazymomquilts, I donated a couple Wonky Stars to her Quilts of Valor project and knew I wanted to make a quilt for myself using this fun block.

I have finished piecing 30 Wonky Stars and I am hand quilting them individually, relaxing and fun I enjoy/love hand sewing. ;)

I made a small quilt called “Beach Balls” with the fabric I had left over from the Wonky Star Blocks.

Inspired by a tutorial here *** Cluck.Cluck.Sew. Thank you Allison. This quilt was a lot of fun and I think I will make another. It measures 33.5”x44”.

I used flannel on the back and had a lot of fun with the quilting!!

Another quilt named by Kevin, the fabric line is Nautical and Nice so I think “Beach Balls” is appropriate.

Looks cute on a table too!!

  2. Those are all gorgeous! How do you put blocks together if you've already quilted them? I see individual pieced blocks from time to time but I never see the next step. I LOVE your beach ball quilt, how fun! And the pinwheel quilt, lovely too!
