There is a wonderful pattern out there from V and Co. that I have and love. It gives good instructions and information about how much fabric to buy, etc. The only problem I faced with it, is that it called for a specific cutting tool, that I did not have, and didn't feel I could afford at the time. So, I improvised. I will touch on the rest of the instructions for putting this together, but frankly you can find it in so many places on-line, that it's a little redundant. Here are the points, after making this quilt at least 3 times and teaching it multiple times, that I find makes it easier. I will also help in figuring out how to change the size of blocks, because I like to choose what size to have my blocks, so I assume you might, too. (If you just need this part, skip down to the *). First, you cut your fabric into strips, two dark and two light (These are cut at 2-1/2", finished they will be 2"). Sew one dark to one light, press towards the dark. Repeat with the other pair. Then place those strips, right sides together, so the dark is on top of the light, and the light is on top of the dark. Match your edges and sew across the top and bottom. I'm sure I don't need to say this, but taking precise 1/4" seams is a must when making a quilt. Next you are going to cut isosceles right triangles from the strip set. I show this in several pictures to show there are many ways and tools to use that can help you make that triangle. To the right I have a ruler, specifically for making this kind of triangle. This is very nice because it doesn't take a lot of figuring to know that you got things lined up - there are lines that match the bottom, the seam and the top. You cut along the sides. But let's say you don't have a handy-dandy ruler like that. You can use a square ruler. Line up the ruler so that each diagonal side (that you will cut down) have the same number lining up with the bottom or bottom seam. You can have to top point hanging off the edge up to 3/8" according to the marking on the side of the ruler. By the way, that measurement of the edge that you cut is the size of the square. As you can see from these photos of the gray and white, the unfinished size of this square will be approximately 6". The black and white square will be 10-1/2". After cutting the first triangle, flip the ruler over and cut another, and another, and another until you have the desired number. Unpick the little bit of the seam on the tip on the triangle. *Now would be a good place to interject how to figure what size to cut your strips, and how to figure what size your final squares will be. If you like geometry, you would know the "a squared + b squared = c squared" would be the equation we need, though in this case, a and b are the same number. I will break this down for those that don't thrive on the math. Pull out your calculators and plug in these numbers. Let's say you want to have 1" finished stripes (be sure to add your seam allowances after doing the math). Here's how the figuring works: 1" x 4 (number of strips per square) = 4 4 xª (squared - or if easier do 4 x 4 = 16) 16 ÷ 2 = 8 8 √ = 2.82 (square root) This will be the size of the finished square using 1" strips. Plug in whatever size strip you want to cut: 2.5 x 4 = 10 xª = 100 ÷ 2 = 50 √ = 7.07 Remember to add in the seam allowance before cutting - this 2.5" strip finished needs to be cut 1/2" larger at 3". It can also go the other way. You know you want a 3" square finished. What size strips to you cut? 3 xª (or times by itself 3x3) = 9 9 x 2 = 18 18√ = 4.24 4.24 ÷ 4 = 1.06 (size strip to use) Confused? Click here for all the numbers figured out for you. Personally I prefer the first way, but it's good to have both methods. "But wait!" you say. "You didn't tell me how to figure how much material I need!" For this there's not the easy formula, but I will tell you this: Take the size of your strip (let's say it's 2.5" finished) and multiply that by 4. 2.5 x 4 = 10. That is the length of the seam at the bottom of the triangle. Doing simple math in your head, you can see that with 42" wide fabric, you are going to get 10 triangle bottoms across one side. The other side will have 3 with 2 partials left over. From there, you should be able to figure out what you need, or you can message me and ask if you need more help. We now return to our originally scheduled programming. Open up flat and iron the seam towards the dark fabric. Square it up, by lining up the center seam on the diagonal and trimming to the correct size. In this case, I'm trimming to 6". My preference (because I strive for perfection) is to trim all four sides to make it a perfect square. At this point, I cut the light and dark squares the size that matches the striped pieces. Then, with right sides together (and I find it works best to put the striped piece on the bottom because of the biased edges stretch more on top), I sew the squares together. I prefer to chain piece them, saves me time, thread and headaches of dealing with the little bird's nest of bobbin thread knotting on the bottom. As you can see, to form the majority of the pieces, the dark square and light square are sewn on the same side of the striped square. Then flip one around and make this layout. Match the center seams and sew. Then join those squares together in strips. You can choose to make long strips that you then sew together, or I prefer making larger squares and sewing larger and larger squares together. Personal preference. You can do it the way that is most comfortable for you. Continue to carefully match each corner seam. To help me with my chain piecing, I carefully stack the pieces up - two pieces together with edges matching. (Photo on left). I place the stack to the left of my sewing machine, then turn the stack so the edge that I'm sewing are next to the machine. (See photo on the right). I pick up the top piece and without turning it, put it under the foot to sew. It's already lined up and oriented correctly, and when there's a color scheme that has to keep things in the right order, it's taken care of. I don't have to sew individual blocks and put them back on the design wall (or lay it back out on the floor), because I know that they are going to come out of my machine still attached by the chain piecing and in the same order I put them into the machine. Keep sewing until it's all put together. Then quilt as desired. My preference is pin basting, even when I'm putting it on a quilt frame. This gray and white houndstooth I hand quilted around the colors so the houndstooth pattern would also appear on the back. As you can see in the photo, when I hand quilt, I look for a way to quilt continuously rather than have to tie off and start over again. For this quilt, it meant quilting in a rather zig-zaggy pattern moving from the bottom of the quilt frame, up. So, as I quilt with one thread and reach the top of the quilting area, I unthread the needle and move over to the next place where I quilt with a different thread. You can see the multiple threads all over the quilt. I discovered this method when I was quilting Sterling's large Bird's in the Air quilt and much prefer to not have to tie as many knots in the center of the quilt. The pink and gray, as well as the black and white, were both machine quilted on a long-arm. Meredith quilted the black and white. I don't know who did the pink and gray. At the end, don't forget to put a label on as to who made the quilt, date and any other important information. One thing I don't like about this pattern is that the squares made up of the stripes, have all the edges of the square on the bias. These you have to sew to squares cut on the grain. This makes it difficult to line up corners perfectly. And I prefer to be able to make it look as perfect as I can. Someday, I will figure out the pattern for this where all the squares can have the straight grain around the edges. . . but not today. ;-)

As you may know, a few of us have been getting together to explore contemporary quilting the last couple of years. We have finally decided to call ourselves the "Art C Girlz". We are currently displaying a collection of our works at the GOArt! Satellite gallery at the Senior Center, 2 Bank Street, Batavia. The exhibit will be up until the end of August. The gallery is open Monday through Friday from 9 am- 4 pm. Contact GOArt for more information at www.goart.org, or 585-343-9313. The picture above is a piece we all worked on together called "Convolvulous", which is the name of the flower. Below is a sample of what else you can enjoy if you go to the gallery.

"Hope" Quilt by Kikuyo Miyashita 宮下季久代 from Japan There was a fantastic exhibit at the Wisconsin Museum of Quilts and Fiber Arts in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, USA, that ended January 5, 2014. Titled "Japanese Influences in Fiber Arts", the exhibit features, (among other things), award winning quilts from a major Japanese Quilt Show, the 11th biennial Nihon Quilt exhibit. [The quilts are now being exhibited at the New England Quilt Museum through April 12, 2014.] "Connected Squares" Quilt by Anco Brouwers-Branderhorst from the Netherlands The Japanese show attracts many outstanding international quilts from around the world, and over 35 of the top quilts from Quilt Nihon were displayed at the museum in Cedarburg. "In the Blue" Denim Quilt by Soo Hee Lee from Korea I have been to five quilt shows in the last three months, and yet the museum's exhibit has quilts whose design, workmanship and fabrics stand out among the many other quilts I have seen. I think that the international competition to be in the Japanese show gets a much more diverse body of work then local quilt shows. Quilt by Maya Chaimovich from Israel In this blog post I am sharing a few of my favorite quilts from the museum exhibit. There are many more quilts from the exhibit I'd like to share, but for now these will have to do. close-up of the Kikuyo Miyashita quilt, lots of Keiko Goke fabrics I love seeing quilts in person, because then you get to see not only the overall impact of the quilt, but the small details, fabrics, and quilting choices that make up the quilt. The quilt above has so many cheerful fabrics I have never seen before. The impact of the colors in the quilt is amazing in person. Close-up detail of the Anco Brouwers-Branderhorst quilt The color and construction of the geometric quilt above really caught my eye. The simple block construction, with the white squares offset, is enhanced by the quilting and the embellishment. close-up detail from the Soo Hee Lee quilt This denim masterpiece has to be one of my favorites. The use of zippers and belt loops and the arrangement of colors of denim is just fantastic in the sections of little houses, and then the overall arrangement of the houses in the quilt with a section of leaf pattern is just so creative. close-up detail from the Soo Hee Lee quilt I find myself just stunned sometimes at the talent, skill and time poured into some of the quilts. There is something exciting about seeing masterpieces, and being able to appreciate them. I can't quilt like these quilters, but I can enjoy their efforts, in the same way that I can enjoy a concert even though I can't sing well. Detail 1 of Maya Chaimovich's quilt This last quilt is so different, I can look at it and study it, and still not know where one fabric ends and the next starts. But it is lovely to see. Detail 2 of Maya Chaimovich's quilt I would encourage anyone interested is seeing this show to make the effort. Traveling to Japan to see a show like this is much harder then traveling to Wisconsin (or Massachusetts). People from as far away as Texas made arrangements to come and see this exhibit, and I can see why. These quilts traveled all over the world to get here. If you are interested in seeing more quilts from this exhibit, leave a comment saying so. If there is enough interest, I post more photos.
