Cone bldr (3) $12.00 USD
For the wider sash/border perhaps.
There is no right way up with this pattern, nor is it directional - most useful.
This design once masqueraded as a regular block, but has now been transformed into a p2p design.
Once you start using this type of design - you will wonder how you ever did without.
Once you start using this type of design - you will wonder how you ever did without.
These types of patterns (builders) require two passes in order for them to be 'built' or completed. If they are connected, the sew in a continuous fashion - from one block to the next.
These patterns are sold as a set - as it is great to always have the desired multiple right on hand.
Design Features
- quick and accurate placement of the pattern using the point to point function
- the main design elements/features will not stitch on top of each other when the pattern crosses or turns on itself (see illustration)
- points at 'cornerstone' intersections meet perfectly (and isn't this what is always noticed - especially if they don't!)
- corners are self-turning
- the pattern stitches out very quickly and accurately
- tie offs are reduced to a minimum.
If the machine head can get in and cornerstones (if there are any) are ignored, then that whole area can be stitched in one run!
