  • #sisterchicksquilting www.ctpub.com/rotary-cutting-... In the video I mistakenly said I squared up the block to 9.5". The correct dimension to square it up to is 9" which will give you a finished 8.5" block.
    With all it's angles this quilt looks difficult, however a beginner can easily put this quilt together. It works perfect with a 42 piece layer cake.
    The author, Anita Grossman Soloman contacted me with the E-Book link. This is the link and the templates will be pdf, printable templates. How easy is that?!?!?

    I love that this is a “no waste” pattern! I bought the twister ruler a few years ago because I was intrigued by what could be done with it. But once I realized how much waste there’d be I lost interest in it. This is a great alternative!

      I’ve did and had the same experience with that ruler Gisele. I’ve made 11 quilts with those directions, it’s one of my fave patterns💙. Thanks for watching my channel😍‼️

      Same here, I was disappointed that the twister required me to cut up a perfectly good quilt top! I’ve never used the ruler that I bought for it.

    I have made small Christmas wreath wall hangings with the tiny Twister tool and now I want to make a quilt using a larger block. I didn’t want to buy another tool because I’ll probably make only one quilt. This method is great! And no waste to boot. Thanks so much for the lesson!

    My nephew and his wife were visiting last fall. During a conversation about quilting his wife and I were talking about batiks and he asked what they were. I pulled out some fabric to show him and he said "Oh, it's tie-dye for quilters." Thank you for a lovely quilt pattern.
    Edit: I found the book used.

    • @sisterchicksquilting

    I made this with the twister ruler. Looks great, but it had a lot of waste. In addition, you had to sew the squares together and cut them with the twister template and sew them back together. This way is better.

I have been wanting to make a quilt for my daughter, and like a lot of the younger crowd, she doesn't want anything with busy fabric or quilt patterns that resemble a "Granny quilt". lol Your batik quilt is lovely and the pattern is abstract enough to look modern. Many thanks again for this tutorial including all your tips and tricks!

This year I was finally able to get some help from my husband and put one up., Yay. 🤣😂🤣 You did a fabulous job demonstrating and making these quilts. I enjoyed last week’s video too, and all your videos. ☺️ I’ve never been able to sew with a friend without six states & 750 miles between us. 🤣Thank you so much for sharing “all your talents”, 🥰 Chris

      Hi Chris 👋🏼👋🏼, I found the ruler after I bought the book. I think the ruler actually has more steps and for me it was a bit awkward to use. My Crossroads quilt is sitting in a bag, think I lost my sewjo on that quilt. 🤣 Hooray for your design wall, they are so nice to have.
      What would you think of coming to Idaho for a retreat with me? You’re 7 states away?🥴😬 I’m working out the details as I’ve had so many viewers asking to attend my retreat. Wondering what your thoughts are? Please contact me through my website.

      I found the ruler after I had made this quilt, I was new to quilting. When the lady at the quilt store was explaining it to me all I could see was wasted fabric. She kept telling me there wasn't waste becuase you use the smaller ruler and made a small border for your quilt. I was seeign smaller wasted scraps, lol!

    I bought the twister ruler and used it fine, but it got nicks before long. I made a secondary quilt out of the little squares between each piece hat would have been wasted, but know those are on the bias, somewhat. Cute though, a quilt of a little girl and a matching one for her doll. I’ll certainly give this a go for layer cakes as the pieces are big and will show off the fabric nicely. Wondering how much border fabric we need for one 42piece layer cake? Or at least how many 10” squares to cut. I see there’s a few odd blades to the windmills too, to fill ends of rows? Not sure
    Thank you for explaining this. I really enjoyed it

    • @sisterchicksquilting
      @sisterchicksquilting  Год назад

      What is cool with this pattern Bella is you can make the bocks any size, I love that. I'm thinking I used about 20, 10" squares for the border. I had it laid out on a quilt wall then used my technical skills of counting to find out the number needed. On the heart quilt I just cut and laid out the quit from top to bottom on my dining room table. (before the days of a quit wall.
      Yes, the corners have quarter on them. It's all expained in the book and I think it's a very good value th link will take you to a pdf version.

The shop cancelled my order and is supposed to be issuing a refund. I went searching for another book this morning and the cheapest I could find was $50. As much as I like the pattern, it just is not worth that kind of money. All other shops with more reasonable prices are already sold out. I watched the video again and, from what I can see, after marking your corner location, you could create a cut line at the 2.5 mark on all 4 sides. Does that sound right? P.S. I am already a batik freak too. LOL

    When sewing the boarder pieces to the other half of the block where do you position it. The inside blocks had four pieces and you could match the center with the seam . The boarder piece does not have a center seam.

    • @sisterchicksquilting
      @sisterchicksquilting  Год назад

      The four pieces of the center block are identical. So two together would be half a block. It fits.
