I finally got the opportunity this week to photograph the beautiful wonky star quilt that was made last year at my first PMQG Charity Sew Day.
I originally posted about making these blocks back in February last year and you can find the original post HERE. I really loved the quilt top but extra love it now that Rachel at 2nd Avenue Studios wove her quilting magic.
Rachel free motion quilted these wonderful wandering lines that fill the scrappy white space fabulous while also highlighting parts of all the blocks.
All over the quilt there are these little moments where the lines move around the fussy cutting…
…and around and through the stars. The quilting perfectly compliments the scrappy wonky offset stars.
This quilt is now in our Charity pool and will be used this year…and I am in the process of preparing for the January Charity Sew Day. Every month PMQG members meet at the wonderful Modern Domestic and make blocks and chat and hang out. Every month we make a quilt top together, all of them bright and fun and all of them destined to do good in the community. It is such a good thing.
WOMBAT QUILTS 
It’s a really beautiful quilt and whomever receives it will absolutely cherish it!
Quilting with Friends – Fun! Quilting for Charity – Priceless! Beautiful quilt, I know it will give someone warm hugs one day!
The white on white, combined with the blending of the quilting, makes a stunning effect.
Really beautiful quilt! I love the colours and the idea to use one colour for each star but with different Fabrics, is great! x Teje
What a great quilt – so much to look at, so cheerful.
This is one of my favourites, stars and scrappy. It sure is nice to do charity quilts/blocks, I think I love doing it because I can try different patterns or styles that Id not normally do, win, win in my view 🙂
That’s a really good example of how inspired quilting makes an already brilliant quilt just stunning. I love this quilt so much!
This will make someone really happy – I love the little skull star:))
Lovely. And it reminds me I need to pull a finger out and try to make more charity quilts in 2015.
It’s gorgeous! And there’s nothing better than spreading quilty love. x
This is so pretty! I love the tan and white background squares. Placing these squares in the random way you did is genius. What made you do this and how do I learn to do it?
Jennifer wonky stars are so fun and easy and a great block to use with people of different skill levels. It also is a great scrap buster. I have done 6 or 7 wonky stat quilts and can not remeber how i learnt to do it but i love them.
I love this one! I love the mismatchy white background! I think it should be at Quiltcon! 🙂
Thanks Louise. We are disappointed it did not get in but we will try agin next year.
It is simply stunning! Congratulations to all involved 😀
This quilt is so much fun! Love the scrappy white background and the quilting is perfect This quilt is going to make someone quite happy!
I agree that the quilting really suits the quilt top design and helps the blocks to shine.
I love it! And I’m only reluctantly coming around to embrace “wonkiness.” Haha. I also love how you did the multicolored binding. Very cool!
