TASTER: Japanese Folded Cushion with Sue Rhodes
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 14-Jan-2022
This traditional double-sided patchwork continues to gather fans, but you will notice that the blocks Sue creates are considerably larger than usual, so you get quite a different effect, and she incorporates some jelly roll strips as well.
She has two patterns which you can find in our website: one for a cushion, and the other for a bed runner, but there is no reason why you couldn’t continue to make the blocks and create a whole quilt. If you do, then please send us a pic, as we’d love to see!
