Pink Wonky Star

I was a bit surprised that I was able to squeeze out my one wonky star block. Not much pink left but that was the goal.

    1. Yes I have, I hope I can keep it up so I have a couple of tops by the end of the year.

  5. I don't have a lot of pink in my stash. Mostly reproduction pinks. I always think I should add to it but it just doesn't happen.

  11. I love your star! Having two granddaughters to quilt for, I have plenty of pink in my stash ... so if you ever need a few smaller pieces of pink, just let me know.

    1. Thanks Kathy, thanks for the offer, but I really am trying to rid my shelves of fabric. I am getting there, but I am not sure you can ever use it all up. I guess that is when you can donate to someone who is starting out. I know some quilters have large stashes, but that would haunt me.

  12. Love your block. I hope to make one like this with some pinks this week too. What do you think will be the color for March? I am hoping for Green or Purple.

    1. I am thinking green, which would be great as I love green. It is fun to add a few more blocks in a new color to the batch already made.
