Learn how to make a quilt block on point. There is a formula you can follow to make those quilt blocks “grow” in a setting that will make a larger quilt. It’s a great trick when you need a larger quilt, but are limited with the amount of blocks.
I’ve been working on some quilts and there is one that I decided that the blocks should be on point. After searching for a bit, I found the formula that works well and the blocks turn out great.
Why would you want to put quilt blocks on point?
The quickest answer for me is to make a larger quilt! Having those blocks pivot on point allows you a triangle shape sashing that enlarges the original quilt block.
These triangle sashings can be a great place for some fun and crazy quilt fabric, or maybe keep it a background color to calm the quilt down. It can also be a great place to showcase some beautiful machine or hand quilting.
No matter what size of quilt block you are starting, the formula works great. Plus, you will find a printable version in the Quilt Resource Library. (instructions at the end of the post)

from 546 reviewsI can’t wait to try this pattern. It looks stunning, but seems quite doable!
So in the past, I have had bound planners to keep track of projects. While those are great, they don’t have the ability to arrange and be flexible in how they are arrranged. With the pdf planner, I can print extras of the pages I need, put them in the order I choose, and generally write and rewrite to my heart’s content! I love this planner so far, and I an excited to keep returning to it throughout the year.

I loved the pattern. I had a brain fart and just couldn’t think of a quickie pattern for newborn twins. I saw this and loved it!
I love making baby quilts, this one will be great!
This pattern is so versatile that I bought it for any future fussy cut fabric or theme quilt I might make. There are so many options - children’s, men’s - for those harder to “personality fit” quilts. Looking forward to making this one day soon. The pattern instructions are clear.
These are great!!!! Ready to send with the next quilt

I love the contents of this planner! I have bought one for the last five years, but I really wish the cover was more substantial and not so flimsy. It is a quick fix for me to staple a heavier card stock behind the front/back but it really would make a world of difference. I also create a pocket of sorts in this process, so win! Just my .02 for change, but mostly I LOVE my planner!!
