Ideas for crooked panel blocks?
 

I cut apart some blocks from a panel and they are CROOKED! Not cut crooked, printed crooked! Does anyone have any ideas how I can use them. Any ideas on making a wonky-type block by adding fabrics around the blocks? Anyone? Anyone?

Sure, accentuate the wonk!

Add long non-parallelogram logs/triangles (think log cabin length-but one short side way wider than the other) to all sides out to a bigger block.

Like this.

You could make it scrappy like the picture, or
half the blocks bordered in one color, and half in a contrasting color, then alternate blocks in your quilt.

did you wash the fabric before cutting it?

If it's printed off-grain, it will still be printed off-grain, but at least then you will know how it will behave/

Here are some instructions

I've worked with them before and it's an easy fix. Cut them out, soak them with starch, start with one pin and stick it thru your piece and ironing board. Carefully stretch straighten it out all around while pinning. Use a hot iron to dry into shape. I've had up to 20 pins in a 4x4 piece before. Easy peasy.

Seems like doing that would be a PIDA to me.

I've learned to check for grain lines on those panels before buying them now.

I'm paying attention because panels always seem to be crooked.

Thanks for all the advice. As usual, you have come to my rescue. The panel was a gift. This is why I usually don't buy panels!!!
