Reeskylr why do your triangles A-C look so big? Camera?

Just when I thought I had waited long enough, there's another change! What's funnier still is that I had already made my squares bigger - at 3.5, but not big enough! No worries - I'll use the smaller ones on the back side of the table runners. No complaints Judy - we can adjust!

Thanks so much Judy. I'm hoping I have enough because I messed up and let my ruler slip while cross cutting the 4" squares. But since I have been cutting along the selvege edge I have a bit more of that strip. And like everyone else, I can use the itty bitties for a wee quilt top or placemat.

I have just started cutting and sewing. From A and B it says to cut 3 squares of each and sew on the diagonal to get 2 half square triangles. I get 6 squares. Directions says there will be 12 of these half square triangles blocks.
Do I need to make more? Judy, no problem with the corrections. I am using from stash, and have more than required of each. Debra |

Ok,
Fixed the triangles and I now like my choices better. Thank you for the practice.:) I am afraid of bias edges. [ATTACH=CONFIG]402883[/ATTACH] |
I am getting better by the second making these qst's. :) no worries. started with 1 to 2 yrds of each fabric so oodles to play with.
|
ROFL. I can't help it. I think the train got derailed and went into a rabbit hole.
There are sure a lot of pretty fabric choices out there. Mine will be posted soon. |

Wow, Vicki, making 5 runners shows a lot of trust in doing something you have no idea how it will turn out LOL especially since my brain was in fog state and the mistkes I made in typing.
Ok...tomorrow I will go redo the triangle squares...no big deal. I alerted my friend & daughter. Oh well, more scrap squares for the scrap runner eventually. :) |
dungeonquilter and Dedemac, have you seen the corrections? The QSTs first cut is 4", not 3" and they are to be made from A & C. Go back a few posts and confirm that as I am typing from memory. dungeonquilter, in the first paragraph it is 6 squares for 12 HSTs.
Just pressed my fabrics. My light looks too yellow but the print and the coral batik have some yellow so I'm going to leave it as I like it a lot. It's serendipity that I had just the right amount left from daughter's quilt. I'm making a batch of Dream Bars - a two layer walnut and coconut confection. I'll make extra for the club car. |
My QST's are redone at 4". Thank goodness I have plenty of A & C fabrics.
For those who are totally confused, you cut 3 squares of each of A & C measuring 4" each. Then you cut on the diagonal twice which will give you 4 qst's, ending up with a total of 12 sets when you have them sewn together on one of the short sides. |
