Express Yourself!
Typecast Fast, a foundation paper pieced (FPP/machine pieced) pattern, provides you with the entire English alphabet, all the numbers and lots of punctuation — a total of 50 block designs! Make any word or phrase you want. Mix and match Typecast with your other favorite quilt blocks to customize your projects. The possibilities are endless!
Typecast Fast blocks finish at 9″ tall. Typecast Fast is the same size and design as the original Typecast version (an English Paper Piecing/hand pieced) pattern, so you can combine the two patterns in the same quilt.
This pattern is fabric stash friendly. Scraps, fat eighths and fat quarters work great for the letters, numbers, and punctuation. Use prints, solids and/or fussy-cut your favorite fabric. You’ll enjoy making these fully-tested, foundation paper pieced blocks.
Make a social distancing quilt!
This 6′ Foot Ruler quilt is a cheeky reminder in this time of social distancing of what six feet (or 2 yards for us quilters!) looks like. Make this quilt/runner as a utilitarian decoration for display and use at your next socially distanced gathering. When not being used for a utilitarian purpose, it also makes a fun table or bed runner. Make one as a gift for:
• a baby or child to be used as a growth chart
• a teacher as a wall hanging for their classroom
• a handy person as a wall hanging in their garage or work space
The completed quilt top will measure approximately 75½” x 12½”, a generous 6′ tape measure that will shrink a bit when you quilt it and be closer to 6′ long.
6 Foot Ruler is the perfect project for the intermediate foundation paper piecer. This tested pattern contains both detailed instructions and diagrams, making it easy to piece. Use two different fabrics or use what you have in your stash and make it scrappy!
Dinosaurs is a patchwork sampler pattern featuring Brachiosaurus, Stegosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, and Triceratops blocks. Everything is made from square and rectangular pieces sewn together using conventional patchwork techniques. No templates or paper piecing! Pattern includes two quilt sizes, both of which can be made using fat quarters.
