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)

ALSO MY PRINTER IS BEING REPAIRED SO NO PRINTING FOR AWHILE. GLAD TO GET IT THOUGH.
I really like the pattern, and since we have no babies in the family right now, I intend to make table runners and a bed quilt!
I haven't made one yet, but have read the directions. The directions seem to be quite clear and the doll fairly easy to make.

I love the pattern. I am on a fixed income and want to make useful gifts for my three children and their spouses. This is very simple and I can use scraps or bits and pieces that I have laying around.
For Christmas I made my two daughter-in-laws and my daughter 3 table runners each for Christmas, January, and February. I am now making 3 table runners for March, April, and May. The month that they are born in they get 4 table runners. And, fortunately, they are February, April, and then December. With their birthdays spread out like this it is really each to make. I love the Sochi Table Runner. Going to be a great one to add to the group. Thank you so much.
very happy with the pattern and easy to follow instructions
These poems are very nice and will be useful. It is not easy to come up with little poems to have in a card.
Thank you.
Directions are well written and easy to follow.
This looks like a sweet pattern. Haven't had a chance to make it yet.
