Goodbye Wonky World!

The wonky world is coming to an end after making Wonky Houses, Wonky Trees, Wonky 4-Patches and Wonky Stars as our lovely mama Jane moves onto other things!


This time I was ambitious and put myself down for 20 wonky four-patches and eight wonky stars!


And here they are







Bit of a rush at the end but these have to be posted soon to arrive in the US by the 1st of July!


I have a couple more bee blocks to make before I can rest on my laurels - it seems that I have joined up with quite a few bees now .....not quite sure how that happened!?


I am in 



  • Jude's charity Bee Blessed
  • Sew & Bee Happy
  • Scrappy? Sew Bee it!
  • Star of Africa bee
  • Modern Stitches Bee - which hasn't started yet


I think I am all bee-ed up !


But next month I am queen bee in Sew & Bee Happy so must get my thinking cap on !  I was thinking of asking for stitching words to do with sewing and patchwork - eg Stitch, Quilt, Sew, Bind, Embroider - either improv style, applique, porthole style, embroidered, or any other technique but am wondering what they will think about that?  


I fancy an inspirational hanging in my sewing room made from the words and a reminder of friends made through the internet!

  11. That title was a tad worrying there! But good luck with all the bees! I have 2 months (this being one of them) with 4 bees, then with queen duties and then ones dropping off, I'll be down to 2 again by November

  15. I love the wonky blocks and can't wait to see what you get back from the swap! I think you're all Bee-d out at the moment but I wouldn't put it past you to join something else before too long!! Love the idea of the words, I'm looking forward to seeing your first block!
