Thread: Help w/twister quilt...quilter error..big time

Instead of cutting the blocks 10" as the pattern said, I cut the blocks same size as the template which is 8". So the template wont work...insert frustrating word here...

Really don't want to fiddle w/the template to make it work.

Any design ideas you guys have? I have a top 6 blocks by 7 rows and borders already on. Think I just may have to cut the blocks apart and look at Missouri quilt co for ideas...unless you guys come up with better idea.

Not a good day for sewing I guess!

Can you make your own smaller template at 6 inches and use the top you have made? The angles will be the same as the one you have.

If you want an acrylic one ask a glass shop to cut a 6 inch square for you, them using a fine point sharpie, mark the lines. If you want the feet, just use some drawer/cupboard bumpers.

Not to worry there is a ruler out called Twist'n Stitch by J Tailor and it will ct twisters from 31/2to 10 1/2 blocks there is one for 8 inch. Got it at Joanns with a coupon. I just love doing the twister hope you can find this ruler. Good Luck.
