Yes, I actually HAVE done some quilting lately! :-)
I was recently shown a new-to-me technique for making pinwheel blocks, which makes (4) half-square triangle blocks simultaneously from two large rectangles, instead of the normal way I make them, which is two at a time from two squares. A small difference but it's nice to learn a new method.
I made enough pinwheel blocks to make a small quilt and eventually got the top quilted. I don't know why I dither so much about the actual quilting process; I'm always so pleased when it's done! :-)
The webpage for this quilt contains lots more pictures, quite a BIT more verbage :-) and a link to a video (not by me) that shows the technique.
That picture is just a teaser! For all the gory details, links and more pictures, please visit my web page for the Pinwheel quilt. |
