For those who liked (or missed) the Tips & Tricks session ‘Making Tubes for Making Quilts’, there is a 'Tube Tutorial' on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOWSp0mTTqE
(Note: The tutor says to cut a 4¼” strip to join on to the pair of joined 2½” strips, but I use a 4½” strip.
Judy's hand-written notes give quantities of fabric, how many tubes to make and pressing plans for a 9-block / 36-square quilt pictured left. |
