Thank you everybody. I need to make the Cutting instructions clearer and the whole pattern actually. I write these patterns out and I know what I'm talking about, but I'm not sure that everyone else can understand them. Plus, I haven't been quilting long enough to get things done the right way yet. I just noticed last night, while using my own pattern, that I messed up.
On the SIAS block, on the Green Corners I put cut in 1/2. So, dummy me did just that. Mistake! I should of sewn the green and white squares together FIRST, then cut them in 1/2 so I didn't have to cut on the bias! I didn't cut my white squares in 1/2 but now I have to! Please don't make this mistake. It's alot easier to do it the other way. Also on the 8 Point Star pattern, under "Blues", it said 3 1/4", marked out and 3"? wrote. I cut all mine 3 1/4". I was trimming off alot when I squared them up so I was going to try cutting one 3" next time and see if that would be big enough. I haven't done that yet though! Do not cut yours at 3" until you try one to see if that is big enough!!! I am rewriting the pattern now and it should make it clearer. If you are making one of these blocks, I'd wait until I re-post it. It shouldn't be very long, I'm already started on it. Hope this makes things a little clearer than mud. Marilyn |

Hope you don't mind if I add my 2 cents here Marilyn.
You can do both of these with HSTs. That is how I make them. Just use the right size template for the size quilt block you want to make. I use my HST method to cut them out then sew them into a 4 x 4 grid. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-37915-1.htm For a 12 1/2" quilt block of each use a 3 1/2" template to cut out your HSTs. Then just lay them out and sew them into rows and rows into the quilt block If you want to make a differant size quilt block just change the size of template you use. Less math to confuse you. |
Thanks for all the info...Saves the rest of us a lot of time
