Oh my ---Thanks so much for sharing, I need something to demo for a quilt meeting next month and you just solved my problem. The members will just love this one.

Riversong 10-14-2010 04:46 AM

May I add a hint??? I tried this,and if you fold your piece with the x on it and make a small cut before you sew it ,it is easier to cut the x part later than trying to get the scissors into it...does that make sense???

Psychomomquilter 10-14-2010 04:46 AM

gotta try it!

That's a good idea!

Great link :-D

WOW! I was at a quilt show this weekend and a shop owner demonstrated this technique. There's a new book out that uses this technique - now I don't have to buy the book.

zennia 10-14-2010 09:52 AM

Last night I made some mug rugs using this technique. I fussy cut some snowmen for the center block and went from there. They turned out real cute.
Riversong thanks for the tip. I used my seam ripper with much caution to start my cutting. I like youe idea.

poultney 10-14-2010 12:03 PM

Small scissors is enough too

Wow, how good is this! :D

quiltaroni 10-15-2010 05:21 AM

I have yet another bookmark thingie. I hope I live long
enough to have a go at all these things

Psychomomquilter 10-15-2010 05:46 AM

I have made the first block, wow! i did it!, one question though, after we cut it and all, are we to sew the triangle sides or to iron them. I cant wait to do the other blocks!!

dehgranny6 10-15-2010 06:33 AM

dehgranny6 10-15-2010 06:35 AM
