Thread: Missouri Star tutorials

Is anyone else completely hooked on the Missouri Star web site....those tutorials are just great...have done "disappearing 4 patch", disappearing 9 patch, disappearing pinwheel, exploding block...just love them...check it out...I'm doing exploding block quilt now that I want to be 90x90 when done...scraps are "disappearing" (pun) at a fast rate LOL

Yes, and I also love their daily deals.

on the exploding block, the points disappear (again???) when sewn together...hard for me to except but that's the block LOL

LindaR, I agree with you on the "disappearing" points but that block can't be beat for a quick donation quilt.

Then I did the same thing with two more blocks, but the colours were reversed (block on right).

OK do I have this right???? you did 2 exploding blocks, sewed the 2 blocks, right sides together and then cut them diagonally both ways and then sewed them back together....what size did they end up???very clever

I did go to their store and was so excited to meet her! And......soooooo disappointed in how "unfriendly" she was.
i first saw her walking down the street and she barely acknowledged my greeting. Then I was in her store and tried to tell her how much I loved her videos and she was only politely responsive and moved on to talk to some obvious locals. I was taken by surprise because she seems so friendly on her videos.
I still love MSQC! I just don't feel quite so warm and fuzzy watching Jenny. Lol.
