    Default A Twister pattern with little (or no) waste
    I found this tutorial on the "Fabrics & Quilts" blog. It's for a Twister quilt with little to no waste. I found it rather confusing, but then again... it doesn't take much to befuddle me... LOL! Maybe you'll understand it better than I did & will enjoy it...

    Basically, you are just squaring up the scraps and using them

    I saw something similar somewhere else. I'm doing a twister right now & going to use the extra pieces in the border.

    Just bought the small twister ruler - another 'to do' on my list.

    That is easy. I have the twister tool and never really understood how to use it.

    I bought the Lil Twister and June Tailor's Twist and Turn. I really plan on doing one of these--one day!

    There is waste with the Twister but this is certainly one way to utilize all the scrappy little piecings left from the cutting.....Thanks.
