So today during quilt cam I launched into Clue 5 Celtic Solstice. I read a few posts on Facebook and remembered a workshop taught by one of our guild members a few years ago on the Mary's Unit Block. I dug through all the UFOs and found the nice stack that I had started with the workshop. The units were quite a bit larger than needed for this clue but I also had a conversion chart for making the unit in different sizes....I had also acquired The "Gizmo" which is sold on Sally Schneider's site (sallyschneider.com)
It is a small acrylic ruler
for marking the unit
In a wonky half
These are my beginning units all sewn
This one has been pressed open
You then layer it with a blue rectangle
Mark the sewing lines with the
Offset "Gizmo" sew on the lines and
Cut them apart.....
Two units !
So far 20 units made...
And 80 partially sewn.
With this method you make units 2 for one.
Great work-around on your split triangle method. May have to give it a shot. Thanks for sharing!
