tutorial for adding sashing to tumbler blocks
 

This is a detailed tutorial for adding sashing to tumbler blocks. She even shows us WHY the blocks need to be squared up / trimmed! http://thepeonyteacup.blogspot.com/2...er-blocks.html

Thank You. Tumbler quilt is on my short list for this year.

Thanks for posting! I'd like to do a tumbler, too. Until recently, the patterns seem to have set-in seams. Has anyone done this pattern? Any tips, hints? Other than the above listed video?

Set-in seams? I've never heard that! I thought you just alternated the blocks as you sewed them together by the long sides to form a row, and then attached row by row vertically.

I have a bunch of blocks cut in tumbler shape but haven't started putting them together yet. I'm getting a little nervous, now! I don't think I want/need the extra pressure of sashing, but it does look pretty nice on the project on the tutorial.

I used a Christmas layer cake and charm pack and made one. I did not sash it and found that alternating the pressed seams and a glue stick worked the best for me to match seams. I don't know how to post a photo or I would show it. I just cut another set to do the second one. It is easy (I thought) and goes together quickly. Then I had some jelly roll strips that were red with gold stripe and green with gold stripe and I alternated those for the binding using a variegated red and green thread as I cannot hand sew so I always used a decorative stitch on the front when I machine sew it. It washed beautifully as I wanted to make sure the glue was removed.
