Twinkling
This afternoon I’ve been working on my wonky stars – some for a table runner and two 24″ blocks for the new Stitch Tease Bee.
I’m quite taken with wonky stars and I’m having a lovely time using bright bold fabrics from my stash and with Kona Solids ash background. You might recognize Peridot and Topaz Gypsy Bandana, Kate Spain’s Terrain, Amelia and some lines that have been sitting in my stash for a good long while. Normally I have trouble cutting into new fabrics – but not today. Today I’m going at it with gusto!
Happy Tuesday!

PS I can now report that I have 5 subscribers! I also found the number of followers (8) in a dark corner of my site stats. I haven’t got the faintest clue what the difference between the two is – except that there IS apparently a difference! Oh well, that’s how it is when one is a bear of little brain!

This looks remakrkably like mine, except they are pinwheels on white! We shouldn’t have too much trouble with each others!

I follow through Google Reader and Bloglovin. Well, I USED to follow through Google Reader, but switched everything to Bloglovin when the whole GFC thing went down.
Loving the stars! I really need to start on my row. I’m behind, as usual.

I’m also a follower through Google Reader. Handy that we have all these options for keeping up with the blog. I am loving your Wonky Stars, and they are encouraging me to pick up a baby quilt that has been sitting on my sewing table for the last 2 years, unfinished. It’s another oddball star pattern called PHD (Personally Hand Drawn) Stars, that I am making for my youngest nephew. They are wild 5-pointed stars and really have a similar “feel” to the Wonky Stars. Maybe I’ll have to try Wonky Stars next…

Can’t wait to do many, many stars!

Well I follow you in my google reader but have no idea if that shows up on your stats as I think I copied your blog address over to do it. Nice stars too. I love stars and look forward to doing your blocks.

FYI, I love stars too. These look great and you should have lots of practice when you get to everyone’s block.strip.

I subscribe under Google Reader, and I have no idea where or whether that shows up in your stats! I love those bright, happy stars.

I love all the star blocks.

I love your stars and I’m looking forward to your striptease projects!
But I’m really here to tell you that myself and 63 others subscribe to your blog through Google Reader, which is probably different than the other subscribing/following you mention. So puff yourself up 😉
