    Have used and taught this method. Not good for quilts but rather for wallhangings. See happyhollowdesigns.com for cute ideas and instruction.

    Pellon sells gridded fusible.....I made a table runner using it a number of years ago. Much easier than individually piecing all those squares!

    Yes,you can get the fused material with the grid printed on it and it is dead easy. Good for fussy piecing.

    Wish I had known about this before I started the mini quilt using a mini charm pack that someone gave me. Shucky-durn.

    I have seen that before and it seems pretty cool.

    So you think even the very thin interfacing would be too thick for a quilt?

    I have seen a watercolor quilt done in this way on TV. Any mosaic type pattern would be good, I would think.

    I've made a couple quilts using the already marked grid. I got mine, along with pattern, from "The Crooked Nickle"....not related to them in any way.......The quilts turn out great and not too much bulk. I thought it was an easy way to line things up.
