I started making wonky star blocks after watching a Freddy Moran video on YouTube. I started with several different size center squares and just started putting the stars together.

After a couple of weekends, I had quite a few stars.

Then I had to figure out how to put these difference size blocks together into a quilt. I found a ombre batik fabric that I cut into 3 inch strips. Starting at the bottom, I sewed together as many as needed to then attach one of the stars, then I’d cut off any excess. I put the larger stars at the bottom and the smallest at the top.

Once the top was completed, I made the quilt sandwich with the backing, batting and top and pinned it together. Now for the quilting. A few years ago, my husband surprised me with a Handi-Quilter Sweet Sixteen. As you can see from this photo I’m learning to quilt using a ruler.

Here’s a close up of the quilting on the star.
I quilted all the stars first. Then I added afree motion
tumbling star to the rest of the quilt.
