    quick techniques

    I love the 'cathedral window' quilts and have started one...but knowing different 'short-cuts' in different quilts, wonder if there is a quick one for the window quilt?

    Don't know if there are any short cuts, but here is a great tutorial from a board member:

    That is the method I am using....now another UFO! Gets too intense, have to put aside for awhile...but his technique works well! For a true cathedral window.....but there are other ways to get the look without the work.....

    Check out ten minute blocks, you get the same look, just a heck of a lot quicker.
