Welcome to
The 2006 Charlotte's Other Quilt Club Featuring Thimbleberries Fabrics.
July Mini-Quilt
Lori Smith’s
DIAMOND IN A SQUARE mini quilt.
-
Start with 8 fat quarters included in this month's
shipment. Also use some fabrics from previous
months to get a nice mix of colors.
-
Follow the pattern on
page 10 of FAT QUARTER QUILTING: TWENTY LITTLE FAT
QUARTERS.
-
You
can follow Lori's color picture for fabric choices or
branch out on your own.
-
Sew
together as described in the pattern.
-
Or
follow my tips:
Use
Judy
Martin's Point
Trimmer or the double-blunt end on a Perfect Patchwork
right-triangle template to trim the B triangles before
sewing to the center square and the G triangles before
sewing the the H corner squares.
For
the flying geese, see my "Tip"
on quick geese. Cut the I & J squares, but do
not cut them in half or in fourths. Instead using
these same size squares, follow my instructions. Click
here.
For
the half-square triangles in the borders, use 1-1/4" Thangles
and 1-3/4" strips. This is really fast, accurate
and easy!

This quilt consists of 7-1/2"
blocks and measures approx. 72" x 89" when
finished. Designed and copyrighted by Lori Smith.
After making the
16" x 20" mini-quilt, there will be enough fabric
to make some 7-1/2" blocks each month. You may choose to
receive more fabric each month**, insuring you can make 7
blocks monthly and complete the fabulous sampler quilt
pictured above in just 12 months.
