Ladies, I know this woman who says there are secrets of sewing kaleidoscope quilt blocks, or stack and wack quickly
I would like to know if anyone knows any secrets other than sewing and pressing all the lines the same way
her blocks always turn out fantastic, but she won't share her secrets. unless she has a house of sewers its the only way I know how to accomplish many sets at one time.
Any help would be apreciated.
Thank you for your thoughts and support!!!

I've made several S n W quilts and don't know of any secret to sewing them quickly. I do leave 1/4" unsewn of the seam that goes in the center. For some reason, this helps keep the block from "cupping" so much.

I'm made a couple S n W quilts.. I don't know any secrets...

What a snob job! I would ask her in front of everyone why she even told about the secrets if she had no intention of sharing them. That is one person that I would have no trouble ignoring at all.

what a wierd thing to say to someone. I've only completed one, don't know any secret, sorry.

Is she a teacher?
And not wanting to give out the trade secrets that she makes money from?

I know secrets...but I am not telling either!!! NAH NAH...
(and you believed me didn't ya!) :twisted:

The only secret I can think of is try to con your friends into making them for you. Is this person over 5 years old?

I leave the last 1/4" unsewn and press the seams open. My favorite pattern is 6-sided so I sew 2 pieces together then the third one to make each half. Then sew the halves together. (Add another triangle of background fabric to opposite sides and you can join the blocks to make straight rows.
