very nice!

Love the stripes used this way. I'm going to try it with some fabric I have on hands. Thanks for sharing. Beautiful quilt.
|
I haven't seen that block, it looks like a wonky bow-tie. Like it.
|
WOW!!!!! That is an awesome quilt. I love your fabric choices and how you laid them out. Jeanniebelle
|
Really taken with your take on the 10 min. block and really like your color choices.
|
Thanks for sharing the tip about the glue. Your quilt is beautiful.
|
I love playing with stripes. Your quilt is great, very creative.
|
I like the way all the colors go together. Very pretty.

This is a pattern on Clotide. However, I wouldn't applique the square on, I would make triangles to fit where the square is, sew each triangle to the inner corner of each triangle, flip the piece over and cut off the portion of the rectangle that the triangle covers for all four inner rectangle quarters, then sew together. Be sure you allow 1/4 inch seam allowance or your block will shrink 1/2 inch on all four sides.
Use the same technique that you would a Bow Tie block. There is nothing like making a quilt and starting another at the same time using the triangles you cut off the rectangle. |
Oh wow, I just love that. Never thought of using the 10 minute blocks in a tile, looks like bow ties. Love the use of strips.
|
How cool is that!! Perfect choice of color. Great job! :-D
|
Great quilt love the colors as well
|
Love the colors and the design!

[quote/] see the beginning of my post. I give the information about the pattern. My local quilting store carries Mary Lou's patterns. I believe you can also order them on her website, www.hddesigns.net
Rexene[/quote] I checked out the site and it seems impossible to order from it. It's kind of messed up right now. Or maybe it's me. I might be missing something that's right under my nose. But in looking at your quilt it doesn't seem difficult to figure out, maybe I'll give it a try. I really like it, and the fabrics are perfect for the design. Thanks for the posting. 8-) |
Is this appliqued by hand or by machine? If by machine what stitch do you use? I like the idea of the applique because it is so exact. Great choice of fabrics.
|
Very nice i like the colors
|
Love the colors and the design of this quilt.

I've taken three of Mary Lou's classes and they have been fun and she shares so many tricks, like using Roxanne's Glue to glue down the square (edges are turned under first). It holds the square in place while you applique it. Thank you |
That is stunning!
|
Very interesting quilt! Love how you used the stripes in it. Thanks for sharing.

I would think you could just double the length on the square for "10-minute block" (tutorial on this website) and make it exactly the same without paying for a pattern. The squares aren't appliqued on, they are between the blocks. Check out the tutorial to see how very easy this really is. I'm going to try one in florals.

Great colors and design. Looks like a "Wonky Bow Tie" to me.
|
looks great.
|
How big do you make the square and the rectangles?
|
I love this quilt. When you talked about using glue to hold down the square while it's appliqued on, what kind of glue do you use? Someone in my guild suggested just using gluestick once, but I was apprehensive about using it.
|
I enjoyed the pictures...the colors are fresh and the bold design and fabrics match well. Thanks for sharing.
|
WOW...love your quilt....you are very talented
|
Must have missed the beginning of your web site. But thank you I will have to check it out. OraLee

I love it ... looks like giant bow-ties!
|
Really cute! It is very similar to "10 minute Block" by Suzanne McNeil. In Suzanne's block you don't have to applique the center block. Her example is also called 3 seam blocks.
|
Love it. It looks so easy. What size are the squares and rectangles and the sashing?
|
Awesome on so many levels
