Cathy's Fat Quarter Tuesday Quilt

Second Tuesday of the month is FAT QUARTER TUESDAY at Season's of Home in Midway. When you buy 5 fat quarters, you get 3 FREE!


Cathy had a great example at our August guild meeting of a quilt you can make using 8 fat quarters - a Fat Quarter Tuesday Quilt!

You need 6 fat quarters for the center and 2 fat quarters for the binding. Cathy did hers on the bias. She said if you put 4 inch borders on it you need to buy 2 and 1/4 yards for the borders and backing, plus an extra 1/4 yard of contrasting fabric to add to the backing because the width of the fabric comes up a little short. She likes contrasting fabric on the back because she adds that 1/4 yard down the center for a little more pizazz! You can do whatever you want, if you want it to be the same continuous color, buy 2 1/2 yards for the border and backing.

Thanks Cathy for a super idea!

Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just
your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and everything.
But imagine if you added some great photos or videos to give your posts more, "pop"!

Your content is excellent but with pics and clips, this
website could certainly be one of the best in its field.
Awesome blog!
