Big blooms octagon quilt
I'm ready to start piecing my octagons. I don't want to use squares cut into triangles and then sewn together in rows as kaffe fassett's does in his snowball quilt. I want my squares to be whole pieces and not triangles put together into squares so my polka dots are true in the squares. Any hints on how to do this easily?
Thanks, tp

Is this the quilt you are talking about? http://www.flickr.com/photos/27001012@N00/6265340992/
You would be doing a lot of y seams. The one in the photo was pieced by hand.
