July Block

I got my package in the mail at the end of last week and just couldn't wait to start this block! I love log cabin quilts and have started to really love making wonky log cabin blocks too. I had never made one using the tutorial Stephanie picked out for us so that was pretty exciting too!

I really felt like I got WONKY cutting out the fabric and cutting it again after I sewed on the logs....but it looks pretty unwonky....LOL what the heck how does that happen....maybe its the angle of my picture. I stuck the block to the wall and it too all the wonk out....LOL well that is my story and I am sticking with it!

Nonetheless, if you couldn`t already tell I had a lot of fun making this block! I will get it in the mail tomorrow and hopefully it will make it to the US sometime in the next 4 weeks. BTW at the post office here there is a HUGE sign that says packages to the US take 4-6 business days and letters take 2-4 business days. Since I have been able to send almost everything without having to send it though customs (i just say there is only paper in there....sneaky sneaky. Okay I tell the lady its Quilting Bee Blocks and she doesn`t know what that means. I say fabric and she says so like paper....and I say sure....LOL) it should only take 4 days MAX not 4 weeks....LOL

Have a great day my wonky friends

July is all about the Wonky Log Cabins

Our Wonderful Wonky Bee has started our July Blocks! And Stephanie is our Hostess... I received Stephanie's Fabric pack just before I left for camping last week... I couldn't wait to get home and start working on this fun BLOCK!!

Stephanie has chosen the Wonky Log Cabin! I Love how easy this block goes together.... Stephanie is also a blogger and She blogs over at Stephanie's Stitches. Her Fabric pack included lots of Batiks... FUN FUN Fabrics!! I couldn't resist adding one little tiny splash of my own.. *giggle* can you guess which one it is?? *wink*

Lots of fun and looking forward to the upcoming months of projects! Thank you ladies for doing a great job and for being a Wonderfully Wonky group of ladies!!!

Wonky Star

Hello everyone!

My lovely little package finally arrived this week and I thought I better get my butt in gear so I could have it in the mail by the 30th!

Luckily our June block wasn't too hard for me and I was able to get it done pretty darn quick.

I would like to thank everyone in the group who posts pictures of their finished blocks.... THANK YOU!! I really enjoy seeing what we get to make before my package arrives in the mail. I am also pretty new to quilting so I really love to go back and look at everyone blocks for reference once I do get my package. It really takes the stress out of making the blocks!

Okay before I ramble on even more...Here is my block.

I was toning back my wonkiness since I felt I went too wonky last month and now this might not be wonky enough...LOL Nonetheless, I had a lot of fun making this block. Can't wait to see what the next 6 months brings!!
