Fabric
requirements:
All fabric 42" wide prewashed.
Nine dark 2¾" strips
Nine light and two dark 3" strips
One dark 3 "
strip |
1. Sew a 3" light and 2¾"
dark strip together length-wise with a ¼"
seam. Press the seam to one side. Make
nine sets of strips.
2. Cut 5¼" triangles
from the strip set, using the 60o end of the Super 60. Line up the 5¼"
line on the tool with the edge of the
strip set. For greater accuracy, cut in
turn from each side of the set of strips.
3. Cut 10 diamond halves from
a dark 3" strip for the fill-in
pieces, using the 120o end of
the Super 60. Cut six
dark diamond halves for the Hexagons
and Stars quilt and four dark
diamond halves for the Pinwheel quilt. Cut four dark triangle halves for
the Pinwheel quilt from
a 3 " x 5¾"
rectangle as shown at right. Turn one
rectangle over before cutting to get left
and right triangle halves.
4. Lay out each quilt, using
triangles with a dark base or light base
as indicated by the quilt diagram. Sew
together the horizontal rows in pairs,
adding the diamond half sewn with one
triangle at both ends as shown in each
quilt diagram. For the Pinwheel quilt, add left and right triangle halves
to the top and bottom row. Twist
seams to reduce bulk. Add borders as
desired to complete the quilts. |
