Few Answers for Painted Zigzag


If you missed my previous post, refer to it while reading this.

Just want to do a quick post and answer few of the questions I have been asked.

This illustration shows how your zigzag would look if all the blocks were made the same.
I kind of like it. It almost replicates the angle of lightning in stormy weather.

To make my hsts I used even 4" squares, cut them diagonally and after sewing the hsts, trimmed them down to 3.5". The square then finished at 3". The block measures Nine inch square.

I am going to the Hershey show today. If you are going to be there, please say hello.

  3. You gotta stop...I'm SUPPOSED to be working on a quilt for my daughter to take to college but when I saw the 'painted zigzag' I just HAD to try a 'couple' of blocks...I'm up to 20. It's TOO MUCH FUN to mess in the stash and find the fabrics. THANKS!
