Progress on Starburst Quilt
#74
I couldn't find my paperwork on where I bought this, but after doing web search I believe it is this one:
http://www.gloriouscolor.com/store.php?cat=514 - but I also found similar products at http://www.everythingquilts.com/crea...nnel-grid.aspx and http://www.nancysnotions.com/product...esign+wall.do#
I have really enjoyed using it since I never could place my blocks in a level line
But it doesn't "grab" as well as I would like and I have to use pins for anything except small blocks.

I think it was during my conversation with the designer Dereck Lockwood that he mentioned it, but I'm not certain, and in searching on the net I couldn't find a paper pieced pattern. If you use the templates like I did, it does help. I copied them and cut them out with an old rotary cutter. Then I would use glue stick to attach them to the edge of the fabric and (with long ruler) use that as size to cut the strips. Then I would glue individual template copies to that strip and use to cut length. You can use the templates multiple times since the important marking is the interior line showing stitching line. I would place my ruler giving 1/4 past the stitching line so if I sliced a tad off the paper templates it wouldn't affect the next time I used it.
