I am working on a quilt with blocks that are based on a technique in Quilting Modern by Jacquie Gering and Katie Pedersen. The book has some great ideas and illustrations, but I thought it might help to see step by step photos. The tricky part is matching up the first set of strips after the second set has been added. I drew a seam line to help line things up when pinning.
-
- Slice and Dice pg 83
-
- 1.5″ strips on a 14.5″ background
-
- Mark where the strips were placed
-
- Line up the ruler where the marks are
-
- Cut the first set of slices
-
- Sew the first set of strips
-
- Piece the square
-
- Cut the second set of slices where marked
-
- Sew the second set of strips
-
- I drew the seam lines to help match the slices
-
- Pin along the seam line
-
- Unfold to check the pinning
-
- Piece the square together
-
- Trim to 12.5″ square
My plan is to make a quilt with these blocks alternating with square in a square blocks.
