THEY'RE BACK!!! Ready for a Single Fat Quarter Potato Chip Quilt?
|
Hi Reader, With JUST ONE Fat Quarter You can create this beautiful Potato Chip Quilt! It may be small but so very and pretty and practical. Plus it's a great way to get back into these 'addictive' quilts. I know I can never make just one! π My initial thought for this tutorial was to use an ugly fabric I avoid using. But then I found this piece and had to use it! I have a couple other variations that I'm excited to try, so be sure and watch for those. βSubscriber 40% OFF Super-Sized Placemat Pattern Saleβ As I work through the other options for this pattern idea, those will also be added to this pattern. I'm looking forward to some fun quilting this week! Readers have asked how to make a Disappearing Potato Chip Quilt Block. That's a very good question that I've thought about quite a few times. My first idea was to create a block laid out like an HST. Then after making four of them, I positioned them in a pinwheel pattern shown in the video below. ββSubscriber 40% OFF How to Make a Potato Chip Block Pinwheel Quiltββ Alternatively, a Potato Chip Quilt Block could be made into a half square triangle.

Hi Reader, YAY π₯³ MY WEBSITE IS BACK AND WORKING! Thank you so much for understanding and being so supportive while my website was down these last few weeks. Due to some idiot hacker, my site was totally inoperable! With lots of help, everything is now operating as it should. There are some new articles I still need to add and will let you know when they are posted. To keep my internet-frustration to a minimum, of course I just kept quilting! Here are some new videos you may not have seen yet....
Hi Reader, Wow, it's been a month and it's only the 14th! My website has been a blank white screen for two weeks. More commonly referred to the 'white screen of death'! It was hacked and getting it back in operation has taken some time. But now it's back online...EXCEPT that I can't add any new posts. There are a number of posts for new quilts I've been working on and hopefully I can get them online soon. In the meantime, here's today's video. It's a demonstration/tutorial for the orange peel...
