Sew you wanna get wonky?
Me too!
Determine the size of the finished block
Before you begin.
ie. pillow? mug rug? baby quilt blocks?
I am making ONE block for this tutorial that I want
a finished size to be around 16 or 16 1/2"
CUT 1
12 1/2” square
For the top and bottom frame
Cut ONE 6” x 15” rectangle
Cut the rectangle at a diagonal as shown here
LEAVING 1” at each corner
Bottom right to upper left diagonal cut!
Center as show here and sew using 1/4” seam allowance.
TRIM both sides
Cut ONE 6 x 18” rectangle on diagonal
Same as above in 15” rectangle
Center 18” piece in each side.
Sew with 1/4” seam allowance
Press entire block using BEST PRESS
