Arrowhead block swap

[RustyHen]

@katsdar I think I will change my mind a dozen times before I find the right colors of the Labyrinth quilt. I already have several times.

@Anna6 I'm doing The Town and Country quilt along with GourmetQuilter it last's a whole year so 365 5" blocks in applique? plus several others so I understand!

I just did my first arrowhead block, will from now on starch the 10" block till it like cardboard before sewing, because the triangles are bias cut, my big pitfall. I does go together easily.

I too think I will have problems making up my mind on the Labyrinth, wow 365 little blocks, I too like the way the block goes together, and it will be a pretty quilt.

you did use the 2.5 inch cuts

Yes I used the 2.5" cuts, I do think we need to measure down 2.5' to begin sewing, instead of 2" . I had to remove that .5" to get the pieces to fold out.

This is good to know so I'll pull out the starch! I haven't started yet. I'm going to have to go through my stash. I haven't even thought about what color to do the Labyrinth quilt yet. I'm not sure I want to do it in grey/black but I don't know what color. Maybe I'll walk through the quilt shop and see what strikes me or check on Pinterest to see what I can find.

You know your right, totally forgot about that tid bit.

Took me a little while to figure out what you meant, but then I went back to the instructions and it made perfect sense. Thanks for the hint

@Wanda Blaskowsk do you have the pattern? we are going to go with the L. Walk as a sew -a- long, a few are going to help each other , this will not be the swap, it is a project for those that want to play along

 

[katsdar]

Those of you that are doing the L.Walk, I have been talking to an instructor and I have her "Things I found out when I made it..." tips paper she sent me.


On the patterns that you purchase now the corrections should be updated, but here is the paper




if you have problems viewing or printing let me know.
