Wonkiness

Many projects are in my head right now. In fact, I feel a bit like a "quilting machine" or something. (Ha! I crack myself up!) Yesterday, wonkiness was the word for the day apparently, and I didn't get the message until too late! Here are my fans...they are coming  along and I just love the "look". But, don't look too closely as you will see some wonkiness in the curves....

Oh, well.

I signed up to make a small quilt to donate to my quilt guild to be auctioned off this fall at a money-raiser. Using a block that I had made earlier this summer to practice my paper-piecing skills, I played around with border options, finally landing on this wonky blunt-nose design....

 Liberated Quiltmaking II, by Gwen Marston has a great tutorial for eye-ball cutting the angles....

 and sewing them all together to the desired length. After trimming, I have a cute wonky border for my little quilt. Stay tuned for the final result....(I may have a hard time parting with it!)

 This wonky little critter really gave me fits...(it was supposed to come out square!!!#%&) Eventually, we came to an understanding. Come  back tomorrow to find out how it was tamed.... 

It's a great story!
