All you do is make half square triangles and squares I made mine four inch and follow the pattern. Half of the strip is half square triangle and the other half is a square.
which colors, the top colors or the one down further in brownish tones. making a quilt now for my bed finally after all these years in green tones, will do a pic later when i get a further along with it, going to be a big one
When I start out with say a 4″ square and cut in half
Then sew triangles to make a square of course it is now less than 4″
It then does not butt up to a solid 4″ square
That’s what I’m trying to figure out
So I make those squares I’m going to cut larger?
Or do I make the solid pieces smaller ?
I never see two different sizes in patterns
Omgosh….are you saying you measure for each piece and you then cut with scissors? If you have not already purchased a cutting mat, sewing ruler and rotary cutter, you would improve your final results if you could do that. I know those items are not cheap but so worth it!!!!
Would like to make a quilt with these blocks someday. Maybe when I have some free time. Not in the cards anytime soon, so will just enjoy watching the video.
Susan Jacques I learned a lot from Jennys videos for Missouri Star Quilt Co. She will make it all easier. I just started quilting a yr ago and the tutorials have been my school. Don’t get discouraged. Keep trying until you get the answer. Good luck and have fun.
Joanne Schoenfeld, guess I can’t b your quilting buddy but it sure would be fun. I live in Fort Worth Texas I think you can find a small quilting clubs to join around you. I joined a Linus Q club here and we have a good time. All levels belong, long time quilters and us beginners too. We make simple little quilts 4 children in hospital, and some needy areas. Just once a month then we work on their projects in between

Susan Jacques

My biggest dilemma is when I cut and sew two to make s triangle of course it never comes out the same size as the square….
So at high it never says it in my directions should I just use the cut and sewn size as the finished size of the square?
Is this just common sense or am I missing something?

It does not mean you have to stick to triangles and squares. Try using squares and set circles on them. The use of colours is important.

When making half square triangles add 7/8″ and for quarter square add 1 1/4″ and they will come out the right size.
