Great explanation mts. I think what is importnt for it to work properly is the fabric choice. Looks very much like the modern line of fabrics.

Oh my goodness that is beautiful. Thanks for posting about it.

I'm inclined to think the blocks are on point and are all made the same.. . if you tilt your head you will see what I mean.What a beauty and you have peaked my interest.

I have only worked from a purchased pattern once before, but this one I would definitely want to start with a pattern or at least a block pattern, I could figure out the rest.

Nor is it the Corn and Beans (that name cracks me up). Or set with on-point blocks. This particular rendition requires a whole floral patch that is NOT made up of 4 squares or triangles. Look again at the diagram in post 11. |
Yes, you can do it that way - and that is the way it appears, but it's easier to do it as 4 4patch blocks.

Batik Waves makes more sense to me. The Corn and Beans one I posted about has something missing-this one has the 2 rows of triangles (HST's). Block appears to be set on point.

Our small group made this kind of a quilt for our Christmas Fundraiser for our Quilt Guild. We used all scraps. We had templates for the half square triangles. Started with a 9" square, one light and one dark. Cut each once on the diagonal then put all the lights in a bag and all the darks in a bag pulled one from each bag and paired them together, then sew a quarter in seam on the cut side, then cut 2) 2 3/8" strips one will have a seam and one piece left for the large triangle this will give all the pieces to make on block. I will see if I have the directions still and maybe a photo of our completed quilt.
