Be on the lookout September 1st for the directions for the March Block, Churn Dash to be posted!
August has finally arrived!
We’ve been hard at work over the last few weeks preparing the materials for the block for you!
Introducing August’s Block, the Half Rectangle Triangle Star!
You can find the downloadable materials here.
This is our first opportunity to work work templates. IMPORTANT NOTE: A small square has been drawn next to the Half Rectangle Triangle (HRT). When you print out your template, be sure that your square measures 1 inch square! This will ensure your Half Rectangle Triangles will end up the correct size. Be sure to cut the bevels of the template. Cutting the bevels into your half rectangle triangles will make sewing together the triangles easier.
If you’re new to working with Half Rectangle Triangles, do not fear, we’ve created a video tutorial for you!
