I purchased the booklet at our local Quilt Guild Quilt Show (Rio Grande Valley) and learned to make these. Harder than I thought.
Purchased at the "Second Hand Rose Sale" and paid a quarter....lol [ATTACH=CONFIG]178257[/ATTACH] I used scaps to make these, not really intending to make a quilt, just make the block. [ATTACH=CONFIG]178259[/ATTACH] When folding and ironing the pleats, the ends must be tucked into the other sides. [ATTACH=CONFIG]178260[/ATTACH] used a bread knife to make the pleats straight [ATTACH=CONFIG]178280[/ATTACH] Iron on tape to keep pleats in place [ATTACH=CONFIG]178283[/ATTACH] Then you sew pleats down.

Well, isn't that interesting! I believe you that it might be just as hard to do that pleating correctly and evenly as it is to sew a log cabin block.
But it does make me think about how a pleated block might fit in other places! |
I agree, interesting concept. Wow, the stuff you learn here!

Never seen anything like this...it looks difficult...but looks really nice finished.

very clever

I've never seen that technique before. It looks tricky. Thanks for taking the time to post pics and share with us. :thumbup:

I think I would prefer the log cabin blocks.
|
If I tried something like that, I believe that would drive me to drink! Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing! :thumbup:

Very interesting.

Beautiful...but it sure looks hard.
