November 2019 - Winding Trails


Winding Trails is a great scrap quilt block. Use any prints, solids, stripes, dots; it's all good. 
Scroll down to see the sample.


Choose two fabrics. Cut one 4" square and one 3" square. 
Then cut the 3" square in half on the diagonal, as shown above.


Position the two triangles "by eye" as shown above, and then sew 1/4" from the long edge.
Press open. Trim. Make a bunch so they can be used in columns, as shown below. 


Here's my Winding Trails quilt, so you can see one way these blocks might be used.
 I can't wait to see all our blocks on the wall.


 I like that crazy gold and green fungus fabric on the left (below). Bold stripes look pretty cool too. 
I could be happy making Winding Trails quilts all day long!


By the way, Winding Trails is in Farmington, where we used to bring our sons to swim in the 1980's.
