Have you liked the wonky wheel?
Today I post a little "how to do" if someone want to make it.

1- Freehand cut a circle from a paper square about 8"x8" (20x20cm) with a center hole .

2-Hand cut some slices from 3 (or, better, more) strips of different fabrics about 6" of height.
3-Using the paper circle as a foundation stitch the slices right side together and continue until the circle is completed.
4-Trim the excess of fabric from the border of the circle.
5-Complete as for an appliquè circle.

6-Place the wheel on the background an complete with a star (or a heart or a free hand circle...) to cover the hole in the center.

CONGRATS! Your wonky wheel is DONE!
A good idea. I like the "wonkiness".

ReplyDeletelove this! but how do you sew down the last slice? I mean how do you complete the circle so that the last slice and the first slice are sewn together?
