Default Rose Twirls Video Notes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Va9JMQ6pjFs
I take notes on videos to guide me, and I just wanted to share.

Four 6.5” squares:

· 1 dark

· 2 mediums

· 1 light

Layer dark to light, right sides up. (Line up edges)

On bottom end, make a mark at:

· 1.5”

· 3”

· 5.5”

Mark the same on left side, starting at bottom and measuring up.

“Connect these marks” using a rotary cutter, cutting an arch.

Refer to video.



Set smallest set aside.

Other 3 sets are turned face down. Take each piece and press ¼” under on shorter concave edge. (Small, Mediums, Larges)



Layer colors in Small, Mediums, Larges:

dark on bottom, lightest on top.



Start with center piece situated with the right angle at lower left and curved edge at upper right.

Layer first piece on that curved edge-overlap ¼”-topstitch 1/8” .

Continue layering light to dark . see video for technique.

Basically, orient last layer at upper right and new layer as a “smiley face”

Save last two arches to ensure 5” finished square can be trimmed. If not, scoot them out a little.
