Quilting Charts
I have seen, but can't remember where, charts that tell you what size square to cut to get other combination of things, or how many of what you can get from a strip, that sort of stuff.
Does anyone have any links or know of where this stuff is located on the web? |
I'm pretty sure there's some of those on Quiltville!
|
Here's one site that has charts for cutting a FQ into layer cake, jelly roll, charms, etc. with math charts - scroll down to see various options:

Thanks Ladies, I think that is close to what I needed. The rest I found by opening a book, yes a BOOK! LOL
|
Lots of places online.
However, I still prefer my 2 reference books: - the Quilter's Pocket Reference ... by Peggy Scholley - All-In-One Quilter's Reference Tool Much quicker to use for me and I don't have to go to the computer and get sidetracked. ali |
Bookmarks this link. Great info!!!
|
There's also victorianaquiltdesigns. Good luck.
|
Kathy T, thanks for the link. Very helpful.

This Phoenix Arizona.. the middle of the desert! |
Hail on ground here also

Ya know Ali, I have both of those and didn't even think to look there? How did you like the hail storms today? These feel in my front yard, I live in Maricopa.

I think we missed the hail, but we sure got the rain downpours.

|
another source. a book = "Quilter's Complete Guide" [the index] by M.Fons & L.Porter.
|
Thanks for the link it will come in handy.
|
There are several quilting reference books that will tell you that along with other cuts and fabric requirements. They are very handy to have and use. One of them is the Quilter Reference Book. Great too, belongs right with your cutter and rulers.
|
Print and laminate the ones from Victoriannasquiltdesign.com. They are very helpful, I really like the binding one.
|
Here is a great site with loads of useful information
www.quilterscache.com |
For those of you with iPads, iPhones or other android gizmos, try downloading the following apps: QuiltFab, QuiltRef or Robert Kaufman's app. RKs is great, key in a number and bingo, you get the size of whatever you need.

Moda has some excellent charts on their United Notions website. Many good reference tools there.

Wow, everyone has posted some great sites with wonderful charts! Now to gather them all and read read read!
I was looking for these for future reference in writing cutting directions for my mystery quilts. This kind of information comes in real handy when trying to take cutting directions from EQ and then translating them into how many of what out of what? questions. BTW, Blue Skies is now active! Come take a look and play along!! |
Susan- I cannot find any of the clues since Clue # 1 was posted. I cannot access your profile to send you a PM. Can you help me out?
