Easy Carpenters Wheel
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have drooled over the Carpenters Wheel for months, but was terrified to even try it since it looks like a difficult block to make. I was at Quilter's Cache last week and found this 'easy' version of the block. I am patting myself on the back because it really was EASY!!!!!

Beautiful!!! I recently bought fabric to make a Carpenter's Wheel but haven't gotten to it yet!

What a good job you did there!!!

MrsM 03-21-2012 06:19 AM

You did a wonderful job. I love this block.(When I get overwhelmed by a pattern, I tell myself take it one step at a time and don't worry about the whole. It works. )

WOW, easy or not it looks great.

That is awesome. My brother is a retired carpenter and I want to make him one. What are the measurements for the squares...if you don't mind sharing.

donnaree59 03-21-2012 11:02 AM

Yours is beautiful! I've always wanted to try making one too... you may have inspired me that I could. My sewing skills are sometimes the pits and I've always had trouble matching points/seams etc. If this one says it is easy, I may just have to try it! You did a great job!

tatavw01 03-21-2012 11:16 AM

love it very cool

BMP 03-21-2012 01:39 PM

Aunt Janey 03-21-2012 02:33 PM

Is this the 24 inch block that she lists or did you enlarge?
Does anyone have a link to the quilt size carpenter's wheel pattern?

CajunQuilter2 03-21-2012 02:34 PM

great job, that pattern is on my very long list of quilts to do.....one of these days

burchquilts 03-21-2012 02:47 PM

That is a beauty! Did you do the version where you use HST instead of (those dreaded) set-in squares? I've used that method & LOVED it! Thanks for sharing this with us! It's great!

JudyMN 03-21-2012 02:48 PM

Beautiful! What makes this easier than the others?

weasier22 03-21-2012 04:24 PM

Very pretty! This one's on my list to do!

Stitchnripper 03-21-2012 04:31 PM

Very nice! The HST method is easy - did you use that one?

red-warrior 03-21-2012 05:08 PM

debcavan 03-21-2012 05:48 PM

I love your fabrics. My friend made one of these. It was all half square triangles. She loved it too.

Nettie Phillips 03-21-2012 05:54 PM

Good job. I'm doing a version of that right now. I love it too.

BrendaK 03-22-2012 02:38 AM

Very pretty. I also want to make one, for our King size bed, not sure how big to make the squares. Will be watching this post to see if anyone has the answer. Thanks for sharing. BrendaK
