This is the pattern my son loves and wants me to make for him! (the shaded one on the Cozy Quilts website). I was also wondering if I needed the ruler or not, did watch the tutorial on Cozy Quilts as well as the one on Missouri Star Quilt Co. I am thinking the main difference is that with the strip tube ruler from Cozy Quilts - it has markings to adjust the size of the block? Is that correct BellaBoo? Otherwise looks like a ruler with a 45 angle works the same. Or, thinking here, using the ruler with the 45 angle - do you just adjust the size of the strips to get a different size block - the 45 angle line still goes on the seam line? Trying to remember how the strip tube ruler worked, trying to picture my regular ruler and fabric - but I am very visual - need to lay it out, see it - to get it!
Hmmm...like the free pattern, but of course my son likes the shading on the Cozy Quilts one. I have never done a quilt with that kind of shading in and out of the light and dark colors. That is what makes the quilt. Guess I will have to ponder if I think I can get that right. My son likes the Coffee Cake batiks from Timeless Treasures (
