Piano Keys Tutorial
Well I finally finished this last night after midnight and I was just too tired to do the posting so here it is this morning. I had planned on doing the piano keys right from the start due to having so many fat quarters from working on my "Dear Jane" and I thought I would give a little tutorial if anyone else would care to do this. For mine, I cut 100 2-1/2 x 5 strips of border fabric and 16 2-3/4 for the corner pieces. On every strip that was adjacent to the star block above (it was every 7th strip on mine) I would put a 2-1/2 x 2-1/2 block of star fabric and draw a diagonal line and sew it to finish the top of the strip so it finishes the bottom point of the star. If anyone does not understand that part, you can pm and I will gladly walk you through it. Just remember to put a diagonal block on the strip under the star block above and you should be okay. The corner pieces are just four patches of the dominant color of your quilt. I was really pleased how it turned out and I have enjoyed everyone's quilts.
