thanks crazyrvquilter. i rather thought they had to be slip stitched together like regular hex's. not sure i want to do that although i did a hexagon quilt that way already.

I made the one that is on You Tube, which starts out as a circle and gets turned in on 4 sides. It ends up as a square shape attic window. Very easy. The circle ruler/pattern is available. I made my own for the baby quilt I made. It was at least 10-15 years ago. I saw it on Kaye Wood.

Looks like you already got lots of good advice. I've seen the second photo quilt done in denim. They started with circles, but sewed them into squares, with an added square in the centre so it almost looked like a mock cathedral window. Auntie B

It just hit me, how easy we could machine or hand quilt each block before we put them together. I think I would like to do a spoke pattern on the colored part of the blocks to start with. Another project to begin.

I would love to have a copy

I was wondering if you could sew a thin batting in the circle and then turn it...and then go from there?

doing it like it showed on the tutorial, without batting.. would it be thick enough for a quilt with just using 2 pieces of fabric sewed together?

I know that the folds would be thicker but the center of the circle would still be just 2 pieces of fabric.
What do you think on this? batting or no batting?Thanks :)

I would use batting, otherwise it would still be like making a regular quilt with no batting, still 2 layers of fabric. pretty thin! and thanks to those who posted the links of the original post where I copied the pic from, I knew it was on here somewhere but couldn't even find it in the search.
Thanks!
