Quilt in a Day Forums

Wait, where does the 4 patch come in?

When you are ready to cut your 4 - 4.5" sections you have a 2.5" section that you sew into a 4-Patch. You will see this in the video and in the Paper Pattern.
If you arrange them on point it will make a sweet little quilt or bigger determined on how many 4-Patches you have to sew together.

When you make the quilt it shows the 4-patches at the corners of the borders

HAPPY STITCHING

Here’s mine

HI, Teresa,

Sign me up. I made 6 blocks (3 of each mirror image) and will slip them into the mail to you tomorrow. I made them from scraps so there were no 4-patches left over. But I did have some little scraps and was able to make a few 4P's and included them. I forgot to take photos but I used the WOW floral you mentioned with a pansy print. This a cool pattern. Wouldn't mind a big win here!

Mary

Maryq - WOnderful fabrics for your blocks and I LOVE your Points!!! Eager to see them show up at my house!! Thanks for joining us this month

Maryz - You are a sweetheart to make them with the WOW fabrics and to make some 4-Patches to go along with mailing them. I hear you on winning! I wouldn't mind winning the 4-Patches Using the same pattern as we did for January it makes another cute quilt

What am I up to ... I still have all the sections made for many blocks but haven't been able to get into the sewing room yet to stitch them together. I have been busy in the Longarm room quilting a quilt for Linda. Would like to speed it up but my foot is still dictating when I need to sit and stretch the tendon. Yes I have tendinitis now that evidently has been there all along being masked by the Plantar Faciitis. Ugh. Please Pray for me as I do LOVE sewing and quilting. Thanks.

My blocks are on the way to sunny California!

Also, since I was a lucky winner last month I got those blocks together in a quilt top yesterday and just posted a photo over photos section.

Teresa, hope your foot starts behaving soon!

Who would have thought, can only find 1 puece of fabric with flowers! I must have more somewhere.

Maryz - received your lovely Pansie Blocks. My favorite flower with my now favorite WoW. Perfect for this month. EXCITED!!!! Might I ask where you picked it up or where I can purchase some
Thank you for asking about my foot. It is doing better but therapy still continues for 6 more weeks. I would like to be able to walk on the carpet with no shoes if possible.

Valerie - One fabric would be Purrfect as Mary would say. All of hers are Pansie's so have no fear about just using the one. If you find more great but no worries if you don't. I would rather you enjoy the sewing journey of stitching this block.

I am off to get my Valentine Cards in the mail and stitch some blocks together. Have a wonderful Day!!!!

The problem Teresa, is I only have enough of the one fabric for one set of mirror blocks. I know I must have more somewhere!

Teresa, I got that WOW at my favorite quilt shop that went out of business last June. In the selvage it says WHISPER WHITES by Maywood. Maybe you can find it on-line or your LQS can get it for you. . .
