May blocks for Hives 1 and 2


This was a very interesting block to make.  I have not worked with wonky triangles before, even though I work wonky quite a bit.  It was harder to make my mind let go of "rules" than I expected.


I have liked the look of the wonky star for a while, but this is my first one.  My biggest challenge for this one was finding "modern" fabrics.  I generally don't buy much in the "modern" fabric genre, but I found a Sassy charm pack online by Sandy Gervais, who I happen to like, so I bought it.  I am not sure what I will do with the rest of the stack.  Perhaps I will make up more of these wonky stars for a quilt of my own.
Thank you both for the opportunity to use wonky triangles.  It was fun.
