Hope to see more people sign up this month!!! |
Rhonda, Does each swapper choose a block to send to her partner or do we say which block we want? The reason I ask is because some may have lots of your blocks and be collecting different ones, rather than getting repeats. Of course, for me, I don't have the first one, so I'd enjoy any block!! Just went through some of your tutes and looks like fun. I can't make a star block without the 30 degree angle block or would any ruler with that marking work fine? nancy.

As for the 30 degree you can use any 30 degree ruler. I also have a paper template version I created that bypasses the 30 degree and it also saves abit on fabric. I still prefer the original 30 degree method but I had people saying they didn't like having so much left overs. I reuse my left overs but I guess not everyone does. http://www.quiltingboard.com/forum.php |
