I love to challenge myself in all areas and I am taking on more and more different fabric challenges. Buntings are becoming a fun and quick sideline with lots of room for adventure. I also enjoy other crafts and cooking and gardening, this blog is a mix of my life and quilting happeningsWehago designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07383382424967816112noreply@blogger.comBlogger111125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-918403945622788208.post-1534936200212945892018-04-07T21:11:00.000+10:002018-04-07T21:11:01.156+10:00Fabric blog tour, Taking Flight Fabrics<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Well it is here! My Turn for Fabric Blog Tour!</h2>
<div>
Good morning everyone! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is so exciting to do a final reveal and show you the process of my quilt! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am so thankful to <a href="http://amandabrandl.com.au/" target="_blank">Amanda Brandl</a> for inviting me to do this tour and for <a href="https://www.kkfabrics.com.au/" id="id_bace_95a5_e67_1f54" target="_blank">KandKfabric</a> for giving me this awesome fabric to play with. Amanda has designed two ranges of fabric - Taking Flight and Bush Gum Blossums. These are her first ranges to be launched onto the market. I know others have said this, but I can't say it enough, it is such high quality fabric and is amazingly so soft. My bolt range bundle of fabric is in a truck on its way to me at the moment and I just can't wait. I really need to make a dress from one of these fabrics.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I did some designing using my quiltography app on my iPad I decided that a carpenters wheel quilt would be ideal for this fabric. It measures 39" so is ideal for a lap rug or a baby quilt.</div>
<br />
I decided to use 5" squares as this will make it charm friendly quilt if anyone wants to try it themselves. I will write another post with all the details of the pattern later in the week. If I do this here it will leave you a novel and that is not the idea today but to give you a glimpse of these awesome fabrics.<br />

Now I just knew this little beauty had to accompany me to <a href="https://harewood-house.com/about-2/" target="_blank">Harewood house -Scots on the Swamp Fundraiser</a> where I was doing a demonstration of my quilting endeavours. I was in the stables again and this is a great place to showcase my quilts. I then took Staring Feathered Friends Quilt on a tour of the house. Here are the photos I took and you will see a few with some delightful people who were looking through the house when I took the photos. <br />

then sew these two units together down the completed sashing strip</div>

lets put the following small squares onto the sashing on the following unit as per the photo leaving the seams partially done so the top square unit will not be sewn fully to the bottom only the top part of the sashing and the bottom one will be sewn to the outer of the piece below the nine patches and fully to the inside of the long sashing.<br /><br />

Now I am so sorry this has taken so long to complete this post. I plan on having this quilt top quilted by end of July. I managed to get to the Australian Quilt Convention and was very pleased to meet the wonderful Angela Walters of the Midnight Quilt show <a href="http://www.quiltingismytherapy.com/" target="_blank">here is a link to her blog</a>. I did a free motion quilting workshop with her and I am even more motivated now. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So I hope you are excited to finish. If you have finished and placed yours another way I would love to see it. Maybe if you're not in my Facebook group you could tag me on Instagram or even come and join us at<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/355989734552807/?ref=bookmarks" target="_blank">Wehago Designs Quilting Community</a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Until next time happy quilting, happy life,</div>

I will complete the blog for The Bakers dozen block of the month in the next few days. My work schedule has me now working five days so it only leaves me with two days off to do all of the mundane things. I must admit i have achieved quite a few things in the last few weeks. I will just give you a few photos in this blog post to do a catch up. <br />
<br />
This will be one of the last blogs I will do on here as I am finding I am unable to do them on my iPad as blogger is not doing any upgrades for that medium. I will move my blog to my website. I have done one blog here to find out how it looked and I was very pleased with the result. I will continue to leave links to the new posts here. Therefore people will still be able to see what I am doing and not miss out on anything.<br />
<br />
There is one thing I will be completing today that I am unable to show you until it is presented to the owners. <br />
<br />
Without any further delay here is a few photos of my achievements and we will catch up over the next few days. Beware the posts might just happen quicker than we expect.<br />

Hello!<br />
<br />
How did you all like the Bom quilt which I have called the Bakers Dozen Square Dance?<br />
<br />

Now I will give you a break down of the strips for sashing and how I joined it all together. Please don't be overwhelmed. It looks complicated, but let me reassure you, that it is not really hard, we just need to take our time and do this in an order.<br />
(If you do not wish to set it out like this you could sash in uniform way and use the extra 9 patches to make the border with)<br />
<br />
I did lay this all out and move the blocks several times to achieve the right effect (with hubbies help) of my blocks and colours. I suggest you place the house block central as I have, why? I feel this draws the eye to the centre of the quilt then allows our eyes drift around all of our other blocks. It's a bit like the saying all roads lead to home. <br />
<br />
You need to join the extra 9 patches made from the December blog as follows to form 4 x 12.5" square blocks and 6 12.5" x 6.5" rectangle blocks. These are fillers. <br />
<br />
For the sashing strips cut 2.5" width of fabric. We need 25 strips to make the sashing and the inner border. Cut the following from the light grey border (or whichever colour you prefer)<br />
1 x 42.5" length<br />
1 x 34.5"<br />
2 x 28.5"<br />
3 x 26.5"<br />
7 x 20.5"<br />
Using some of the ends from the previous strips and some of the other strips cut<br />
14 x 12.5"<br />
<br />
then you should have 7 strips which can be used for the inner border.<br />
<br />
From the dark grey fabric cut 4 x 6.5" squares<br />
<br />
We can now start to assemble the quilt. Clear a space or use a design wall. I use a floor as I haven't set up my design wall.<br />

I have labeled the sections and will explain each one in the following steps<br />

<span style="text-align: left;">Join the following Sections with a 12.5" strip. </span></h4>
<div>
<span style="text-align: left;">note:- *Press all seams towards the sashing!</span></div>

<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
Firstly do section A, B, C, D, E, F, G, placing a 12.5" strip between the monthly Bom and the little 9 patch fillers.<br />
<br />
Onto section F place an extra 12.5" strip on the outside of the 9 patch fillers<br />
<br />
Secondarily, do section I and J making these into long pieces as in the picture.<br />
<br />

Ok our next part of completing this top is to piece some of these sections together. So on the top of A and B we will sew a 20.5" strip, then sew both of these pieces together. Then to the left outside of this unit we sew the 28.5". Place this piece away for later<br />

Now your top should be looking a bit like this. I have separated them all so you can get the idea of how all of the units are coming together.<br />

Now this will end our Part one. The next section we will deal with the partial seams and the final part of the border. If you wish you may like to cut your border out. I cut my strips at 5.75" width of fabric. I used 8 strips as to do this. I plan on giving you part 2 for the final part of this process by Friday so you can all do a lot over the weekend as I know a lot of you put your weekends away to quilt the days away. I am trying to find time to write this as clear as I can after work so I feel this is the best solution for us all.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Please let me know how you are all finding this challenge. Remember I will be doing a row by row this year but feel I should wait until April to start. I really need to complete a few things and this will give me time to get a fair amount of it together in writing anyway. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So I wish you all the very best for this week and enjoy piecing this part of the quilt together. Plus remember this is your quilt so you may piece it a standard piecing of sashing or just join them as they are if that is how you wish to do it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
have a good creative week,</div>

So now these are all done I am very happy. I have cut all of the hand pieced blocks but yet to cut all of the 28, 9 patch blocks but that should happen tomorrow and these will be all bagged up to do during my lunch time etc at work. I am very excited to show you the layout I have come up with. I will be adding a couple of solids for sashing next so I hope you stay tuned and check back in to the blog tomorrow for an update!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I trust you are having a great start to the New Year! I am hoping to complete about three small quilts this coming week. I do have the tops done and they just need basting and quilting so lets see how tomorrow and the rest of the week goes. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Until tomorrow, have a great night or day whichever it maybe on whichever side of the world you maybe,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
have a great creative day!</div>

Yippee! December Block is here with a Christmas Bonus</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hello Everyone!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am finally back. I have been on a bit of a piecing frenzy with lots going on and I will try and give you another blog tomorrow to fill you in on some of them. But lets get to business with the Block of the Month.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Firstly I must thank all of you for being so patient and joining in with the Block of the Month this year. I am excited how this is coming together. I will be attempting to complete my hand pieced blocks over the next couple of weeks to get that part of this up to date also.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Right what will we need? 6 fabrics this time and some of them not a real lot, so get the box of fabrics you are using and lets get started.</div>

I have designed a house block using a reformed 9 patch block for us to signify going home for Christmas. I hope you like what I have done. Let me say that although I worked out my measurements on paper I must have had such a blonde moment as today I had to change the roof and the sides. So here goes.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Cutting List:-</h4>
<div>
for sky 2 x 3.5" squares </div>
<div>
for the roof on 3.5" x 12.5" rectangle</div>
<div>
for door 3.5" x 6.5" rectangles</div>
<div>
for walls 3.5" x 9.5"rectangles and 2 x 3.5" squares</div>
<div>
for windows 2 x 3.5" squares</div>
<div>
and for sides of house 2 x (9.5" x 2")</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Please note this is it all laid out before I realised the mistakes I made. But it will give you an idea of what we are doing. So please bear with me.</div>

No I would like you to stitch the house body first. Join the window squares to the wall squares to form 2 rectangles. Press seams to the walls or downward. We then join these units to either side of the door and press seams towards the centre of the unit. Finally we will place the upper part of the house unit on to form the front of the house.<br /><br />

</tbody></table>
It was right here that I realised my initial calculations I had made the roof to high and the sides to wide. So our final house block will not have a roof looking like this. Please attach the sides of the house block either side of the house front then we will do the roof.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For the roof, mark a line diagonally through the centre of your sky squares and lay on either end of the roof rectangle. Sew directly on this line from corner to corner. Remember to place your pieces of fabric right sides together We will then cut the excess fabric off and press the triangle outwards on either end to form the roof. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lastly we will sew the roof onto the top of the house front and Voila! here we are ready to go home for Christmas! You may wish to add a little button for the door handle and another for a bell or just embroider one on. <br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Now lets look at our 12 blocks together from the past year. I'm really happy with this, but I do like to play with how I layout a quilt. So I have been looking at fun ways to do this and I have found one. Now if you would like to make this quilt into a larger quilt and don't want to add just normal sashing come and make some of our bonus blocks and over the next couple of months I will take you through how I plan to piece this quilt. I will also catch up on the hand pieced top and continue giving you photos.<br /><br />

Bonus Block!</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Now I did promos a bonus block and for me it is still the humble 9 patch block but this time we will make it only at 6.5". This is then known as a 6" finished block as that is what it will be in the finished quilt. I plan to use 28 of these blocks with one other fabric and a plain dark grey solid for some small sashing. </div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Cutting list:-</h4>
<div>
from the various fabrics you have left please cut 2.5" squares and use two fabrics in each consisting of 5 squares of 1 fabric and 4 of the other fabric. Refer to <a href="https://wehagodesigns.blogspot.com.au/2016/01/january-block-of-month-is-here.html" target="_blank">January 9 patch block, the piecing is the same just the cutting is different</a></div>

Please let me know if you are enjoying this. I have another planned and am finalising all the details over the next couple of weeks and will let you know about this one. Due to a few things happening in my personal life with one of my girls becoming engaged I have a few extra things to do so I am planning on doing this when things settle down. I want to have this all worked out well in advance so that you are all not hanging on a thread for a couple of weeks like which has happened this month.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Also I have come to fine out about this quilt which is going to be put up on the Bernina blog and has been translated from the Netherlands blog. I am planning to do it so I may learn new skills to enhance my quilt making and sewing. I figure even just by reading this you may learn a few things about your machines whether they are Berninas or other brands. <a href="http://blog.bernina.com/en/2016/12/preparations-crazy-colors-mystery/" target="_blank">I hope you have a read of Sylvia's Crazy Colours Mystery here</a><br />
Finally many many thanks and I hope you are all having a wonderful time preparing for Christmas and are not too stressed. I understand this is not always a happy time for everyone but I challenge you to remember a happy moment in time past and hold on to it and relive it in the best possible way you can.<br />
<br />
Until my next post.<br />
<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful day,<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Hello! Well the long await for the November instalment for Block of the Month is here! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So much has happened over the last month, I have just finally caught up enough to do this block. This month I decided to do the spool block and place a 9 patch in the centre for the coloured thread!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So go to the stash and select two tones of fabric for your thread or 9 patch, a background and a contrast!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Cutting Instructions:-</h3>
<div>
for the 9 patch cut from one fabric, 5 x 2.5" squares</div>
<div>
second fabric, 4 x 2.5" squares</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
from background and contrast fabric, cut 2 x (3.5" x 6.5") rectangles</div>
<div>
cut 4 half square triangles at 3 7/8"</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Once these are cut layout pieces as below:-</div>

We will web the 9 patch block so we will take the top two squares and join them and then chain piece the next two and then the next two. Do not cut the joining threads between the the units. then we proceed to join the next pieces onto them to create the webbed 9 patch leaving us only to join them into one block<br /><br />

Here is our blocks so far, now just one to complete the set, I did promise a bonus block and will look into this one this week, I am not happy with my split nine patch block so I do plan on redoing this one. <br /><br />

So how are you liking this coming together? If you would like to place this together like I am planning I will give you the heads up to make some 9 patch blocks from your scraps so far. Use 1.5" squares and you will need quite a few, how many I haven't decided but I am not going to do the standard way of laying these blocks out in a sashing for a boring outlook but you are quite welcome to do that. My problem is I like to have a different outlook on this. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am also thinking about next year, I have enjoyed doing this block of the month and doing something a little different for you all. I am wondering if you would like to go on an adventure next year with me? I am thinking of more like a row by row quilt. This would mean if you only want a wall hanging that is possible or if you want a large quilt this is still possible. I will be keeping it simple again as I will not have heaps of time but love to do this and have people join with me. Now let me know your thoughts over the next few weeks as we wrap up the year.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Anyway, have a great Weekend and I hope to check in with you on Sunday if all goes well. I have almost finished my Double Wedding Ring Bag Pattern also for all who have been patiently waiting.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So have a wonderful time and catch you real soon,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

So tomorrow is going to be a day packed full of sewing for me and finalising patterns and working on the website so people can obtain patterns, kits, and special goods made and things to assist you with my patterns. I am hoping to get your Bom done on time this month and I have lots of ideas going through my head for the coming year.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I hope you have all had a great time whilst I have been away! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I will be linking to slow stitching Sunday with <a href="https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com.au/2016/11/slow-stitching-sunday-lighting.html" target="_blank">Kathy</a> to show my progress on my Shashiko that I am finishing tonight. Have a wonderful day and look out for the upcoming posts on my progress of patterns and goods.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
so until next time, </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Keep smiling, creating and having fun.</div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Yay! October BOM!</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hello! thanks again for being so patient and understanding with me! This months was running late then I had the call from the nursing home to say that a bed was available for my mum. Hence I have been a bit busy organising things for her move in tomorrow. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now that is under control I thought I would do something for me tonight and sew. So I went to the Bom fabric stash and I chose these two fabrics for this block. Earlier this week I purchased the EQ Mini and from the small amount I have played with it, I'm really loving it.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So lets get on with this block. I have chosen the flying squares block this month. We will learn how to do a partial seam and still have heaps of fun and whip this block up quickly.</span><br>

Now I did manage to put a few stitches in this small quilt, once again I will try and do a short time each day on both quilts and it will not be long before I am shouting out they are finished. Due to the nature of this post I will be linking with Kathys Slow Stitching Sunday today, take a look at all who are linking and say thanks to <a href="https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com.au/2016/09/slow-sunday-stitching_25.html" target="_blank">Kathy for hosting and check out her bow tie Quilt and where she is quilting it</a></div>

Nitty gritty of Anniversary Blooms!</h4>
I am sure you are all dying to see some lovely photos and here about this quilt. It all started 2 years ago when the American Quilters Society released the 30th Anniversary Dogwood Fabric Collection. They had a competition to design a quilt. I did but didn't get it quilted in time, I finally finished this year.<br />

I decided to use the familiar Churn Dash Block to form a lattice and the drunkard paths to form a wedding ring flower. Hence the name of Anniversary Blooms. When these fabrics arrived I couldn't believe how delightful they were. <br />
<br />

So after the top was sewn I commenced the hand quilting. I decided to use Aurifil 28wt threads in several colours. I also wanted to give the striped border a slightly different look so I went with doing small baptist fans and then I highlighted the flowers and made a cross hatch in the centre. I then started putting leaves around in the churn dash blocks.<br />

For this quilt I used Hobbs Tuscany Wool Wadding. It is definitely my favourite for loft and stitch definition. Now I just loved working on this quilt but as I thought I was finished I would keep deciding it needed more background quilting. So I kept going on and off for the 2 years. Many other quilts were completed in this time but for me this is my favourite quilt so far. Many have asked who this quilt is for and my answer is ME! It will be my quilt for ever even if the family are all claiming it! So I hope you have enjoyed my Anniversary Blooms Blog. <br />

<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Nitty Gritty of Lollipop Drops!</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lollipop Drops started from a session of play with the Creative Grids Hexagon Trim Tool, you can <a href="https://www.creativegrids.com/acatalog/HEXAGONS.html" target="_blank">find it here if you are not quite sure what it is.</a> I was having lots of fun and working one day a week in a patchwork shop, Moda Pedal Pushes range was new and looked so inviting that it came home with me. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I wanted to make a modern looking quilt and do a bit more than the trim tool showed in the instructions. So with a bit of manipulation of the tool I decided to create this top. </div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The piecing of the top</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div>
I wanted to create the red like it was coming from the centre of the quilt, and it was reminding me of those large lollipops we would have as kids, hence the name especially when I placed the small and partial hexagons in the lower and side border.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
Once the top was completed I decided to quilt this with Aurifil 12 wt thread and a Shashiko needle were my choice along with the Hobbs Tuscany Wool Wadding for loft. <br />

Now to give you a little update of what I have been doing. My time for quilting has been reduced a bit as I have returned to work, although it is only three and four days a week and for 6 hrs a day I can still do lots of my quilting. Luckily for me hubby is not working as he's between jobs so is doing his share of housework and cooking leaving me with time to create. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Now my job is in a wonderful fabric store and we sell fabrics and trims and accessories specialising in dance, dress and costumes. It's lots of fun to work in this type of environment. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Plus once a month I am teaching a beginners patchwork group and we are growing in numbers and having lots of fun. </div>

On Monday last week I recieved a package from an online friend from Canada! Oh I opened this and tears of joy welled up. I have always wanted to make one of these Hawaiian or Tahitian quilts. And also include where some awesome Canadian fabrics which I will make another top with. I now will go shopping for some of our awesome Aussie fabrics for Jo! She deserves them. </div>

Happy spring to everyone from my side of the world! </h2>
<div>
Well after a few busy weeks, I am finally getting back on track and a bit more organised. I decided to get this block to you on time. I have also cut up all of the hand pieced blocks I am behind on and I have them all bagged up so I can just do some hand piecing when waiting or just wanting some quiet time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
So I have decided to introduce you to the Chinese Coin Quilt Block. </div>

We will start by sewing the centre squares which form a cross in the middle of the block. Sew a background to the fabric A and press seam towards fabric A. Then join the centre background square between a 2 pairs which you have just sewn, this will form the middle strip unit of the block. <br />

Happy Friday! Plus a big Hug and a Kiss for the first day of the month!<br />
<br />
<br />
Well I hope you are ready to do the last bit of cutting and sewing for this block and quilt! So lets get to the sewing area and be off and sewing steadily for a quilt top.<br />
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Cutting Instructions</h4>
<div>
From your backgrounds you will need to cut 72 x 3.5" squares.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Sewing Instructions</h4>
<div>
Take out the four patches from the first clue and make sure they are all facing the same way. As in the top right corner has either the dark or the light (depending on your background). Place the background square on top and sew as per photos below. We are about to make double four patch blocks before assembling our block to make the quilt</div>

Layout your block like this, I then work from the top and chain piece, I have the right piece placed on top of the centre and work from the top of the block and chain each one and remove leaving the little chains between. This is called Webbing a block, it really helps us not to twist things when they are going together. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

Now I love this block as it makes a secondary pattern through the quilt. I have chosen some border fabric which is in a photo above with the units of the blocks and also a binding. During today I will sew this little quilt together to look like this and I will be putting the borders on and I will explain how to do this for you all. So either later today or early tomorrow you will have another blog post with the finishing touches!<br /><br />

Now I am actually thinking of Calling this little quilt of mine Gelati Stars. what will you call yours?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I hope you have all had as much fun as I have doing this and I am wondering how many of you have guessed what it was going to look like? Do you like it or hate it, we all have different taste, I'm just interested in your thoughts? Also would you do another one with me?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ok off to the machines and consider these questions. If you find it hard to leave a comment on the blog just let me know in the group or message me.</div>

Have fun and Enjoy the first day of July!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Good Morning to everyone! here is your clue 3 for the Winter Mystery Quilt Along!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Are you all ready?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Today you will be sewing hourglass blocks and I have a very cool way of doing them without dealing with triangles! I am sure you are happy about this neat little trick. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br></div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Cutting Instructions</h4>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
So today you will need 18 backgrounds cut at 7 1/4" this will either be you light or your dark fabric</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Then you will need of your 18 Medium fabrics cut at 7 1/4". I am using two colours for my mediums and if you are doing this cut 10 of one colour and 8 of the other.</div>
<br>
<br>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Preparation and Sewing Instructions </h4>

</tbody></table>
You may use a pencil or you may use a hera marker like I did to form a crease in the fabric that you can see so you can use this as a guide. Pair your mediums with a background fabric square with right sides facing. Off to the machine we go and we will sew a 1/4" seam either side of this marked diagonal line. <br><br>

Ta Da! You are almost complete. If you did not hear on the first clue I accidentally recalculated my calculations and halved the amount of four patches you need so you will need to make another 36 four patches before next weeks clue. <div>

<div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
unit blocks and totals for the quilt so far</h4>
<div>
72 four patch units</div>
<div>
9 Uneven 9 patches</div>
<div>
36 hourglass blocks</div>
<div>
<br></div>
