Default Madquilter's Scrappy

I am working on my blocks and they are coming out nicely. The 45* angles require accurate piecing though. I am marking each neutral and then sewing on the line. Another tip is make sure you iron the sewn pieces out to check that the angle is perfect before trimming the extra off.
I don't know if one of the perfect angler marking sheets on the machine bed would work but I tried my usual 45* painter's tape trick and it wasn't accurate enough so I'm marking each one.

This is such an awesome pattern! It looks so complicated and is really so simple. Yours is going to be spectacular. Will it be a lap or bed sized quilt?

I will work on it until I run out of scraps or it gets too big, whichever comes first.

I have this pattern in one of my quilt magazines. Wasn't sure how to mark the 45 degree cuts. Thanks for the post.
