I purchased a fat quarter from a LQS that was folded the neatest way. I hope I can explain it to you with these pictures. When fat quarters are folded like this, it makes them organized and easy to look at when choosing colors for a quilt.
fold the fat quarter twice, lenghtwise [ATTACH=CONFIG]36226[/ATTACH] then fold in half again [ATTACH=CONFIG]36227[/ATTACH] bring end with selveged edge up [ATTACH=CONFIG]36228[/ATTACH] tuck the folded edge into the selveged edge [ATTACH=CONFIG]36254[/ATTACH] this is what the finished fat quarter should look like [ATTACH=CONFIG]36350[/ATTACH] |
Thanks for the tute. I was just trying to figure out how to fold them like that when I was organizing my stash a couple of weeks ago. I always have the raw edges sticking out everywhere.

Wow that is really neat. I should get mine organized and do that. Thanks for sharing. ;)

Funny that's exactly how I used to fold newspapers when I helped my brother on his paper route in the 1950's. :D
I never thought to fold my fat quarters that way. Thanks for the idea! |
Great technique. Keeps them nice and neat. Thank you.

Great idea! Takes up alot less room when they are all folded neatly and the same too.
|
That's cool. I need to try it on mine. Thanks.
|
Pretty nifty.
|
Thank You for showing the technique. Love how neat they will stay being folded this way.
