Order my book Turnabout Patchwork
“Turnabout Patchwork. Simple quilts with a twist” is all about playing with blocks – making a block, slicing it up, and turning or repositioning the pieces to make a completely different block (sometimes two smaller blocks) to yield endless quilt tops.

Thank you for sharing your ideas and for providing details to allow us to recreate the blocks. I had the idea last year of making a textured lap quilt for my visually impaired Aunt, I’ve finally managed to get onto it (school holidays = time to sew). I am stoked with how it has come together (11 blocks + beaded label). I am just about to quilt it. Can’t wait to surprise her with it! Thanks again!

Teresa, I can’t begin to thank you sooooooo much for being so generous with sharing your talent with us. I’m just beginning journey and am narrowing my ‘style’ down.
You may have noticed that I like bold from the boards that I have collected. I also appreciate work and creativity. I was particularly taken with the origami fabric tutorials that you have listed. I can see this in satin ( pink and white) interspersed with something else done in satin, perhaps a solid wedding ring template as the frame for the individual origami panels and either a circled 16 patch in pink and white or star patches (in pink and white) in the alternating circles. BUT that is all down the line for me, I have to learn my craft long before that one gets tackled.
Thank you again and I’ll be sure to keep you posted.

Thank you Karon for your feedback and for sharing your ideas too. Satin is for sure a better fabric to use for fabric manipulation. It flows well and the sheen of the fabric improves the appearance of the manipulation. Other sheer fabrics would also work better than quilting cottons. I’ll be looking forward to seeing what you make.

I am working on an educational website and the owners wanted an article section where I put articles they indicate on the site. The articles come from news/magazine and other online article/new sources. I have been listing ?Article Taken From: (URL)? and a link to the original article. I thought that was enough, but I have heard from a friend that it isn?t. . This site is NOT yet publicly online, so I can change things to be legal before it becomes a legal problem.. . What do I need as a citation to make sure I don?t infringe on anyone?s copyright?. Do I need to do anything else other than listing a citation & link to be legal?. . Thank You all for helping!. SRGR.
