Creating Flat Quilt Blocks

Exciting news.  I've just finished my first You Tube video.  It is on a technique I frequently use in pressing my quilt blocks.  I call it either a split seam or twisted seam concept.

I used this technique in my latest pattern - Tad Ted and Theodore Bowties.

Tad, Ted and Theodore Bowties

There are three different size blocks (2", 4" or 6").  The finished projects have exactly the same layout -- but the size of the block determines the finished size.  The 2" Tad bowties produces a miniature quilt (22" x 29").  The 4" Ted bowties produces a 44" x 58" quilt -- perfect for a baby quilt.  The 6" Theodore bowties result in a 67" x 87" quilt which would be a great lap quilt.

My version was the miniature.  I did some basic quilting on this one -- stitch in the ditch around the bowties and arcs in the sashing.   Even though it is a small quilt -- I still quilted this on my APQS Millennium with Intelliquilter. 
 

Happy quilting.
