Well, I guess I ...Yes, it’s a nice change isn’t it?<br />Well, I guess I initially cut out around 108 – that makes 12 9-patch blocks, set 3 blocks across X 4 down. <br />Then you need a few more 9-patch blocks to slice up and add around the edges. This creates the outer triangular edge – which initially causes one to really look & wonder about just how it’s made! Happy sewing!<br />Linda @ kokaquiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01942832808800906728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8677609960973877465.post-61603609686280548172016-06-20T08:29:34.565+12:002016-06-20T08:29:34.565+12:00Thank you!
