Parquet is a type of floor that is composed of blocks set in a geometric pattern, which sounds kind of like a quilt don't you think? Our Parquet has space for focus prints to dance across the floor while a fun sashing creates a zig zagging secondary pattern.
Big off center focus set off by bracket frames. 4 quilt sizes in 18" blocks. Looks great with one center fabric or many. Rotate the block for different looks as shown on the 12 block lap size cover projects. Create a scrappy project using the bonus block diagrams and an assortment of fabrics for each segment of the block; 18 or 9 blocks.
Large zipper top bag great for all of your magical stuff! Two pockets on the outside and inside keep everything organized. Structural stays keep it in shape. Use a focus fabric and channel stitch the body of the bag OR stitch and flip 2 1/2″ strips.
Finished Project Size: 18″ wide x 12″ deep x 14″ tall
Create bold columns with a shifting focus. Three projects: crib 36 x 48, large lap 54 x 72, queen 90 x 96. Block is 12 x 18. Directional fabric tips. Two bonus projects in a mini block size 6 x 9.

Try something new with your Banded Lemoyne Star technique. In this design, the star points are cut from background fabric and banded with color, but then half of the banded star points are reversed, creating an interesting star variation.
Finished Quilt Sizes: Lap (68" x 74"), Twin (68" x 98"), and Queen (92" x 98")
Another great technique to use with your Wedge Star tool. You will construct four patch diamonds using strip piecing, trim, add small wedges, and trim the inside point so you have four perfectly sized diamonds in each star point every time. With this technique you can create twenty two block size variations from 6" up to 48" in 2" increments.
