Speed Piecing Old Blocks
I have been looking at old fashioned quilt blocks that were originally made with templates, cutting out each piece. Now there are quicker and easier ways to create these blocks. I am working on designing them using 5" charm squares and 2 1/2" strips.
The first I tackled was one with half square triangles and flying geese and no templates. I decided to use one-seam dimensional flying geese to add a little spark. Photos to come later.
Happy quilting!
