Thanks jclinganrey .... when I re-read the blog, I saw that the cuts were 1" from the middle seam .... makes sense to me now. Duh! light bulb came on! This sounds like a fun swap and I want to play!

Can I make a suggestion.......how about adding the month in the title for which month the swap is for. Since it is middle to middle......could include Dec/Jan.
Just a suggestion....would make it easier to find the one we are following. |

Still looking at at the directions and thinking. The tutorial in the instructions shows using only 2 fabrics for the 4-patch but in the sample quilt all four squares for the 4-patch are different fabrics. Will it matter to other swappers which example is used?
or am I putting too much thought into these blocks? |
MaryMo -
The link is for instruction purposes only as there may be someone who has never made a D4P. Each month we will have a different theme so while the basic instructions will be the same, the colors, etc. will change. For December, there is a lot more room for 'playing'. Please use one black/white square, one white/black square and two different bright colors that 'read' as solid. They can be any combination, by the way. So, you are absolutely right. ". . . all four squares for the 4-patch are different fabrics." Very good observation on your part. Hope that helps! Jane |

D4P question: Are there restrictions on the size of the cuts in the 4P to make the D4P?
This sounds like a fun activity and will make a beautiful quilt. In future swaps, I might make some changes for a given month. We'll see. . . I also have some really fun modifications planned for future months. (I have to keep you gals curious, right??) Never a dull moment! Jane |
I forgot to put BRIGHT in the original instruction page for December. Please use any combination of brights in: red/yellow/blue/orange/green/purple. I just don't want there to be any confusion!
