Beautiful looking quilt. I've always wanted to make one of these, but just haven't been able to figure it out until now. But I'm still not sure I've figured it out. In your template it says 3/4" on three sides and in the upper right hand corner it says 1". Why aren't all four 3/4" or 1". Why does it make a difference to have that extra 1/4" in the upper right hand corner. I hope you can explain this. Thanks!!

I have a new addition to my 'to do' list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a book or was a book out called Square Dance that I did that method out of

quilterguy27 - I just followed the instructions that I received for the template! I really don't know why the one corner is 1".
I tested this out by making the template, then drew a number of 5" squares (maybe 3 rows of 3) on plain paper, then traced the template on my grid and cut them out and placed them together in rows. It worked! If that 1" really bugs you, you could try this before cutting any fabric (use 3/4" on all corners)

No, it doesn't really bug me. I was just curious if there was a reason for it or if it might have been an error. I will give it a try tho. Maybe even both ways and see what the difference is. Maybe it has to do with the way it swirls or something to do with the seam allowance. I'm just one of those people like a three year old: Why? Why? Why? I can question something to death, but I will let this go for now and try it out and see if I can figure out WHY. Thanks! I do appreciate that you posted this.

great job

The small template is 3 1/2 inches and the line is 1 inch in from the corner. The size of block for that template is 5inches.

Neat idea. I'd like to try it too.
