Here is another pattern http://quiltwoman.com/dance-partners-quilt-pattern.aspx. It is not free but it is pretty quick and easy. You make 3 different blocks 9" blocks and then sew them together. And then CUT top apart in 3 places and sew them back to gether making on-point blocks. It was pretty scary cutting top after all that work sewing. but it is cute!!!!

Hi, I'm new on this board and found it because my "Square-agonals" technique and free pattern were mentioned. It was great to see all the comments. I do agree about starting with a small project if you are afraid to cut into your quilt top. But once you try it you can see how easy it is. I have quilters making the larger quilt projects all the time without fear. It is also helpful for the larger projects if you utilize my guide tapes.
Thanks again for all of you who commented and feel free to contact me if you have any questions about Square-agonals. I am so glad I found this Quilting Board! You look like a grand group of quilters! www.stitchedbuy.com PS You have found the best bunch of quilters on this board. |
Contradance is the name of the pattern that I made in this technique.

that pattern doesn't look like it accounts for a quarter inch seam, therefore you would not have points.Or maybe I am not understanding the graphics?

Thank you nannyrick for starting this thread. Thank you Ballaboo for the pattern, I have never heard of it before and can't wait to try it. Thank you stitchedbuy for coming up with such a quick way to set on point. Welcome to the board, so happy you are here.

Here's a link to Robin Gallagher's Magican Slice & Dice. She has some super cute and easy quilts.

I won the book: Square-agonals by Sandi Blackwell on a blog giveaway.

I've enjoyed this thread, seeing the techniques. What really amazes me is that someone had the visual acumen to see that this would work. WOW!
|
This technique really looks great! I must try it! What I will do is print out the pattern using EQ7 and slice that, and put it together on point, before I slice my quilt top (of course, EQ7 will not show the outer 1/4" seam allowance, so that has to be taken into account); or you can draw or you can draw it on graph paper before actually cutting your quilt top. I can't wait!
