Your quilts are beautiful!!
|
Wonderful ideas for scrappies. I really like both but I am intrigued with the way you made strips with scraps for the second one.
|
Love the scrappy stained glass blocks! You've been really busy.
|
Both of your quilts are beautiful - just when you think you've seen them all someone posts a picture of a unique quilt! Nice work.
|
oh my gosh, your two scrappy WIPs are GORGEOUS! Hope you will finish them....they are truly stunning. I use this tailor's clapper (solid piece of wood bought years ago!!!) to flatten thick seams....a hammer, rubber mallet, etc. will work just fine, too.
|
Hammers are good, clapper works well open seams and in an emergency trim the seam .
I did find when doing kaleidoscope 2 different ways with 2 different people the one that was the flattest centre was constructed by not having a point on the triangle put a straight top. It was also easier the sew and keep lined up. |
I have a small plastic covered mallet that my husband gave me and I used it on some of my farmers wife quilt block that had 6-8 pieces at one seam. A very experienced quilter and long armer told me that secret and it really does work. I was surprised and very pleased with the results. I figure it blends the fabrics together like setting your seams with an iron.

Where did you find the pattern for the spider web quilt? I love it!
|
Love your scrappies !!
