I took a class on this a couple of years ago but could not remember what it was called. I made a pillow but never stuffed it--go figure. Thats how I do things. Bur I liked doing it , don't know whyI haven't done anymore.

Guess what came in the mail yesterday!!!! You guessed correct!!! The foldy fabric patterns I got off E-bay! woootttt woooooo

So I played a little . I didn't want to mess up the patterns since I have plans for them elsewhere. So I made my own pattern by studying theres. I made a SUPER Simple log cabin block! It took me about 2 hours ..ONLY because the natives in my house needed FOOD! My block is 6 by 6 and I did it on graph paper! Take a LOOK!

Dawn,
Curiosity is getting to me. When or how do you stitch this all down? Do you sew each piece as in paper piecing or do you just tack each piece in place?Years ago I did a small wall hanging with folded fabric and we just tacked the pieces in place. I don't think that would work for a quilt.
I just ordered a book on iris folding which is basically what your doing but with paper instead. I'm hoping it's something I can adapt. I was surprised as to how many books on iris folding Amazon has. Wow! A real treasure trove!
