“Turnabout Patchwork. Simple quilts with a twist” is all about playing with blocks – making a block, slicing it up, and turning or repositioning the pieces to make a completely different block (sometimes two smaller blocks) to yield endless quilt tops.

Quilted brooches video tutorial

1 Comment

Lately I’ve been getting into tiny quilting if you can call it that.

This time I’ve made 2″ X 2” quilted brooches.

Let’s get to it!

How to make a finished 2″ x 2″ quilted brooch

Foundation piecing paper

I used regular copy paper but you may find it to be a bit thick.

You can use special paper for foundation piecing if you prefer.

Foundation paper ruler

Note: I recently started to use an Add a quarter ruler, the yellow ruler in the video, after some followers recommended it and I have to say it’s a true time saver.

I loved making these tiny 1 1/2″ blocks so much that I thought you would too.

The video demonstrates how to make the block with foundation piecing.

In such small sizes I find it’s a lot easier to get an accurate block than using traditional piecing.

Let’s get to it!

Sewing strips and slicing them sheds very different blocks as you can see from my chapter Coordinated strips.

There are so many variations possible  that I could have written a full book of patterns with just this block.

You’ll find this table runner and the 2 other quilt patterns with this block in Turnabout patchwork.

So you can see all the variations in a real project we’re joined by Afton of Quilting Mod, Linda of The Quilting Biker, Brandy of Pampered Pettit, Leanne of Devoted Quilter and Andy of A Bright Corner
