Rhonda's Second Sampler Quilt Along - Week 11 - Clarissa
This week we are using my Drunkard's Path blocks.
So as usual it uses my cut down method which I think makes your blocks more accurate and you have better control of the size as you go.
Just make sure to measure each time you complete a step.
It will save a lot of frustration when you are done.
Here are the directions to making a Drunkard's Path my way with my cut down method.

To make this quilt block into a 12 1/2" unfinished size you will need a 2 1/2" template.
You can take a look at the layout picture to see what Blocks you need and where to put the colors. If you change the color arrangement you will get a differant look from mine.
So try it out and see what you can make with this design! Have fun!
If you need any help don't hesitate to ask. I'll be more than happy to help.
If you need templates let me know. I will need your postal address and PLEASE send it by pm or email not on the open board. The templates are FREE no fees or postage needed.

Here is a hot pad I did years ago and it shows what I mean by the threads connecting. It is a 6 1/2" quilt block. All my hotpads are 6 1/2" quilt blocks then I add borders to get an 8 1/2" size unfinished.

I printed off some 3 1/2" circles from a site online so I could send you some of those if you like. Or you can find a glass or bottle or cap to trace that measures 3 1/2" and trace it off onto cardboard and cut out.
