About eight years ago, I made a patchwork blanket based on a quilt block idea I had about ten years ago. I based the block on 4½" fabric squares. Early last month, I wondered if I could figure out a version of the block based on the square die sizes I have for my die cutter.
I did a little sketching and math and arrived at cutting the squares at 35mm, the squares that would be cut into half square triangles at 40mm, and the squares that would be cut into quarter square triangles at 45mm. Because I am not 100% committed to Perfect, I cut those squares into halves and quarters with scissors, so things were...variable...but workable.
The day I posted the previous project (still not happy with that), I cut enough squares and triangles to do a test, and made this
Success!
Then the tedium started, eventually getting to this
Eventually.
