As mentioned, I finished the fourth Spiky 16 Patch Block I worked on over Memorial Day weekend. I found some interesting directions for cutting side triangles for an on point setting and wanted to try them. Yes, I have rulers galore that are supposed to deal with this problem, but I can’t seem to get them to work.<\/p>\n

First, however, I needed to look at the piece laid out. I laid it out on my design wall and decided that that giant plain square in the middle would be a nuisance.

Even if I ultimately decide not to put the block in the center, it won’t be wasted. I can’t use it for another quilt.

My goal is to have this done to turn in at the meeting. We’ll see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
