Teresa, I think I understand that the 4 patch we would just take (4) 2.5" strips and sew them to get that but how would we make the HST? Please walk me through this or if there's a pattern let me know where to find it ) Thank you very much for your help ) in advance

Duh me, I just saw where you put the 5,5" strips for the HST so I have the sizes LOL but still am not clicking in my head how to do them....what is the matter with my thinking this morning?! Hmmmm still will need help please.....sorry.

Ok I'm in

but let me get this straight in my head

We need to send some 4 patches with color & white
some 4 patches of just colors
and some HST of colors

is that right?

There is a tutorial for this pattern in the QIAD Media Theater....here is the link:

El's method is, as always, awesome! The fact that you can sew everything at the same time on the same strip looks like such a time-saver....check out the video. I haven't made this one yet, but I am looking forward to it.

There is also a Part Two to the Jewel Box pattern video...you will find it in the Media Theater as well.

Hope this helps.....Mel

Mel - You are the best!!!!! I was looking at the free patterns. I keep forgetting about the tutorials.

A few of you had questions. In watching this tutorial it should answer them all.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! HAPPY DANCE GALORE!!!

Thanks Mel for the link... Now that I have seen the video I get it!!

So easy!!! will have to go "stash diving" to see what I can find. I stocked up on white/white fabric a while back so that will be easy!

Ok, Teresa, I think I have a stupid question. For the piano key border, in the video, El sets the remainder of the 5.5 strip aside for the border. I didn't watch the rest of the video, but I am assuming that she cuts that 5.5 strip into 2.5 sections, correct? Is this what we are supposed to do to send in, or am I missing something?

Ok i really like this and although I don't have any jewel like colors, I'm gonna go buy some and join in, and I thought I'd be too busy, but I'm sure I can squeeze the blocks in

Just need to re read and double check exactly what I need to send in......so a set of blocks is 2 x 4patch and 2 HST's and with the piano key border strip do we have to send one 2.5" strip with each set of blocks, I just want to make sure I've got it all right in my head before I go shopping
