My quilt seems to have created abit of a stir, so for everyone who requested a tute....Here it is!!

I have created it in PDF format so that everyone can download it easily, as I have used lots of pictures!!

Have fun, and don't forget to post pictures when you try it :D :D :D

Thanks Izy!!!

You are very welcome Terri :D

Have I explained it good enough so you can follow it though???? :roll:

Thanks. Ijust bookmarked it.

Thanks so much for your pdf file, Izy. It's now on my list to do.

Here is another copy of the PDF...I think I managed to compress the file size so shouldnt take as long to download for you guys on dial up in particular....sorry, should have thought about it first as I can't swap the original as my time is up :lol:

I have it all printed out! :)

So is the race on to see who gets it tried out first Terri??? :lol:

Oh Thanks Izy -- It's wonderful. And yes, I can follow it easily. You did a great job!!

Fantastic Sewjoyce :D

Not me! I have enough projects I need to get finished before I start another!

Thank you Izy, have just got in from work and printed it off. Going to have a cup of char, and a read of your instructions.
Katherine

Hope it makes sense to you Katherine...is it still snowing?

Thank You very much ! Just printed it out to add to my " To Do " List ! :lol: :-) :lol:

I love D9P quilts. Here is a pic of mine.

Susan

Thanks Izy. Your tutorial is perfect! Got it bookmarked and ready to use...if it doesn't "disappear"! :) :)

That looks love on point with sashing Susan, great colours too :D

thank's SO much Izy - I'm sorry I nagged you but it was worth it, it looks great. I'll definitely give it a go - it'll be good machine practice which is something I don't do often!

Obviously, I'll be expected to post the results, so please feel free to nag me right back!!!

No worries, I don't see why you can't hand piece it if you prefer..... :D

No pressure by the way....look forward to seeing it tomorrow :D :D :D

Sorry, just had to pick my head up off the floor, after I LAUGHED IT OFF!!!!!!!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :wink:

Thank you Izzy!!! I won't be planning another quilt real soon, but I will be playing with scraps and this concept...like tonight. :D

Donfel

have fun Donfel :D

don't bookmark it. download and save it to your computer. then you know it won't disappear. ;-)

thanks Izy, I did a pretty good guess but couldn't express it. your pictures and explanation look excellent to me. I understand it. thanks again

Izy, you asked about the snow, well its all gone for now but more forcast for tomorrow and Friday, thankfully the 20 ins promised on Tuesday did not arrive.
Thank you once again for taking the trouble of showing us how to make this pattern.
Katherine

Great job Izy! Was able to save it to my computer..no problem. Will be fun to take some of my D9P and add the twist and see what happens. Thanks for taking your time to share the pattern.

Thanx. You did a nice job of teaching your talents.

Go ahead and save the file. But even better is to get a flash drive for all your patterns, quilt photos, etc. Then even if your computer takes a dive, you'll have it handy!!!

I am so pleased everyone seems to be able to understand it...I know how much trouble I have...I NEED lots of visuals :D

Great idea about the flash drive....the way my hard drive is full I think I am going to invest in an external drive just for all my quilting stuff :lol: :D

Thanks Patrice for compressing the file more than I managed.....need to read up abit more lol...think I only compressed one picture tee hee!!!! :D

i'm pretty sure the only reason i was able to shrink the file size by that much is because i happen to have the complete Adobe Acrobat program. it lets me do things i can't do with regular pdf file conversion programs.

it's waaaaaaaay expensive, so i wouldn't recommend it to anybody who won't use the heck out of all its features.

Echo}}}}}}}}}}} I know that I WILL do this one. Thanks to this board I have fallen in love with the D9P. This is where I learned about it and have really become attached to it. There are so many possibilities. I haven't had (or taken) the time to experiment with it, but I certainly will try this one. Thanks for the tute. :lol:

Izy, thank you so much for the tute. It is easy to follow and I am glad you showed other ways to arrange the blocks. It will be a while before I can try it, as my to do list (finish what's started) is long, but it will be the first after I get all my other sewing done (not just quilts). :-) :-) :-)

thanks for the tute, Izzy. Looks like great fun.

Thanks Izy for sharing. I will post a picture when I complete this quilt.

Thanks Izy - You certainly got this up quickly. How's the clean-up going?

Thanks everyone.....glad you seem to find this tute of interest :D

Sewaholic...check the other thread I made about the flood :(

Izy...

I couldn't figure in how your quilt was a D9P...it sure didn't look like any I had ever seen. I just couldn't figure it out. Thanks so much for this tute. Now I "get it". I'm not a big fan of HST as they are my nemesis, but I'm glad this complex quilt is easier to make than it looks...

And yours sure is beautiful!

Melissa

Melissa...I know what you mean about HST...I think everyone can have a hard time with them...one thing about this is you do have some room for error....when you draw the diagonal seam allowances, if you take a smaller seam allowance at this stage, say 3/16th's, after you have made the HST you will have a little extra to square up...check out my pictures you will see that is what I have actually measured at is .5cm (my ruler is metric!!) :D

Sorry to be thick - what's an HST?

K x

K....do I sound like I know alot...only cause I read so much info on here lol!!

It stands for Half square triangle.. two triangles when sewn together form a square, then there is QST, which stands for quarter square triangles..4 triangles forming a square when sewn together.. :D
