The first set of blocks that were released are 2 versions of a “Slashed Blocks”: Asterisk & Wonky Pound Sign.
I am such a new quilter that these two blocks really challenged me. I am used to doing squares & triangles. So this was a great challenge for me.
As you can see from my picture, I didn’t exactly follow the pattern for the Asterisk – I used the red line/pattern in the fabric as one of the lines of the asterisk – it didn’t work 100% but it ties in nicely.
