 | 2 Blocks, 2 Tools, 2 Colors, Too easy
With just 2 tools, you can easily piece intermediate-level blocks accurately without marking diagonals, over-sizing and then sliver-trimming, or learning convoluted math formulas to correctly size Flying Geese,
½ Square Triangle or ¼ Square Triangle blocks. You will use two rulers to make two different two color blocks resulting in a very dynamic, graphic quilt top. The tools let you just cut and sew! Make several blocks in class and look forward to making more for this quilt and the others on your "wanna do list". It's fast, fun, & accurate!
