    Ok, now I want to make a tumbler! I never paid much attention to them before, but y'all's quilts are so gorgeous!

    Wesing, I made a kid's quilt out of that same line of farm fabrics... but an Irish Chain. Those fabrics are so cute and they made a darling tumbler quilt.

    great shares, every single one!
    One other tip, unless it is 100% scrappy, if it has any kind of rhythm/light dark/pattern at all you have to be consistent in how the pairs are stitched together. Dark always on top, narrow to the top sort of thing. Or you get reverse images and do a lot of ripping

    I always sew with a 2.10 stitch length just so I can rip by hand rather than fool with a seam ripper. Such a time saver and still tight enough stitches to serve a lifetime in a quilt.

    I find this one fascinating. They are all very nice but this one I find very eye-catching.

    Very nice tumblers Kalama. Looks like a fun quilt to make. I love your tumbler quilt too-Boston. I have a plastic template for a tumbler quilt that I ordered from MSQC and haven't used it yet but after seeing all of the pretty tumbler quilts on this forum I am inspired to start one. Thank you everyone for the nice pictures of yours.

    What a wonderful array of tumblers!
    I really love the old patterns. There is something so charming about them.
    It's also fun to see them made with modern fabrics! It's all good.
