Modern Patchwork Quilt-Along — Week 2

This week we are cutting our fat quarters for the Modern Patchwork Quilt-Along. Have you pressed your fat quarters?

If you are a new quilter or need a confidence boost in your quilting studio, be sure to start with the baby or throw size quilt. There is nothing like fabric overwhelm to halt a project before it even begins!

Modern Patchwork Quilt-Along

My Talk of the Town pattern includes five sizes, I’m making the king-size with Arroyo fabrics. What size have you decided to make? Take a moment to leave me a note in the comments as you begin your quilt project.

This week the video is focused on cutting the fat quarters. Making you the most accurate and efficient while at the cutting mat. And keeping your pieces organized as you cut.

In the video, I’ve included tips for using multiple rulers, my must-have ruler if you just want or have one. And how to cut a couple of fat quarters at once. Along with tips for when the fat quarter isn’t as big you were hoping.

I am excited to see your piles of squares ready to sew up! As always, the videos will be here when you are ready to sew along.
