    Thanks Carol! I love that there are so many possible placements of colors & low volumes that give such different looks to this block. You mentioned that you sew the pieces into the twos & threes ahead -which made the light bulb turn on in my brain- they can be sewn as leader/enders! Thank you for your wonder videos.

    Thank you for explaining any size will work as long as the finished length is twice the finished width. Easy peasy!

    Thanks so much for the tutorial. I've been wanting to make a potato chip quilt, but was wanting to do one a bit more controlled. The two blocks you've shown fit the bill perfectly! Again, thanks for the Calculators and tutorials.

      Great idea. Each block or a few blocks could be a memento of a previous quilt!

      I am doing the same and saving up 2.5 by 4.5 inch rectangles. I will be doing one of the versions shown by Brenda from Conquering Mount Scrapmore.

    Thank you Carol. Excellent video. I really like being able mix solid center and piced centers.
    I used the calculator, but for the 12" block it instructs to cut 18-4.5" strips. I want to use a jelly roll. Is there a way to calculate how many jelly roll strips are required for 42-12" squares?
    Pat

    • @CarolThelen
      @CarolThelen  13 днів тому

      If you are using Jelly Rolls then the block finished size is 12". In the results it tells you how many 2" x 4" finished Rectangle Patches to cut. You will get 16 of these rectangles from one Jelly Roll Strip. Divide the number of patches by 16 to get the number of strips you need. Example - for 35 blocks finished at 12" each, you need 630 rectangles. 630 / 16 = 39.375 strips. Round up to 40 strips.
      Hope this helps!

      I haven't heard of Broken Courthouse Steps, so I guess I don't know the answer to the question! Thanks for watching.
