I love both of the blocks, the folded fabric makes them really unique. Nice job.

Hi, fivepaws!
No, my grid is in centimeters.
It is 15 x 15 cm., The lines are 1 cm. and central 5 x 5 cm.
But I made a grid "comparative" in inches.
You can find it at the end of page 1 of this "thread".
Tell me if that answers your questions, please!
Thanks!
Thanks so much. I believe I am set to go. The download is perfect.

Here is a link that is the same technique that is in English. Not the same block, but the same way of doing it, using folded pieces of fabric.

Hi, RobertaMarie!
Your link is "Foundation Piece."
This technique is totally different.
Just then sewing the fabric turns ... but this fabric should not "stretch" beyond the next mark.
But is carried up to the mark and "rests" on it. This creates an excess of fabric, which results in the "fold" of each piece.
I hope you understand.
A hug!
