Each block is trimmed with a square to 1/4" to the outside of the curved piece. That is done to get the curvy flow from one block to the next. Here's a blog that has a better picture that maybe explains it - even though it's for a different size, the technique is the same.

Was not able to find the pattern on the Carolina Cotton website. Any help in finding it is appreciated.
This is a gorgeous rendition of the Drunkards Path. I did a quick google search with that info and it's available on Quilter's Warehouse website, among others. My apologies for not giving the correct info up front! |
This is for Geri
So here's a mock up picture - in the real world the 2 pieces would be sewn together, then place your square up ruler 1/4" from the curved edges: [ATTACH=CONFIG]513177[/ATTACH] Then trim both sides - the pink sides. When you sew your blocks together, you are in theory sewing on the curved edge at the outer most edge of the block. The other layout I did first when I found about this 'method' was this wall hanging: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...g-t261036.html (again NOT an original layout ;) ) there are many options for using these curvy blocks - make a few and have fun! |
