Half-size measurements

[Andree B.]

That sounds like a challenge I could get my teeth into!

Just goes to show you, all the crazy people aren't dead yet! :lol: :lol: :lol: I'll watch! :twisted: :twisted: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Lois B.]

Lois--LOL! No we are not dead--we are living here. :lol:

cough, gag, harumph, not until 2015 :-)

Well Susan, I don't think we were planning to try this until the one we are working on is done. I think a sampler quilt would be nice--will have to look and see what is out there.

You learn a lot on this forum :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think it could be fun to make a miniature, but I don't know if I have the time for it. I'll be watching and decide later.

[Janet K.]

Sounds like fun to me. Count me in! Jan

I would enjoy the challenge. Doing the half size has been quite fun.

On the paper piecing issue. I like freezer paper. It goes through the printer, then you sew on the lines with the sewing machine and no thread, just to perforate the lines, then as you paper piece, you fold the freezer back back out of the way, use the edge as your guide, sewing next to the paper vs. through the paper and when the block is done you simply peel the freezer paper off, easy as could be! Oh you iron the freezer paper to the wrong side of the fabric as you go along to hold in place. I put a video on YouTube about it if anyone is interested. It's my favorite paper piecing method

[Karen H.]

Oh, I've made many miniature quilts using this method!

Karen, would you post a link to your video?

Here is the link to where I posted them on my blog (there is a part one and a part two). If this doesn't work, let me know and I will send it directly from YouTube.
I hope you like it!

Great videos, Karen!
Thanks, I always wanted to see this technique demonstrated. I probably have, but yours is very clear.

[Jo H.]

Loved your videos. Thank you for posting them.
