Last May I started playing with wedges and wheels. This post shows the work using a 9 degree wedge ruler. http://elizabethsquiltprojects.blogspot.com/2012/05/wedges-and-wheels.html
I put the center panel aside until a few days ago. To make a border I cut similar fabric into
rectangles and then sliced them into wedges with only one edge on the
bias.
This weekend I concentrated on piecing the scrappy border
wedges. I tried to make it look like
the wedges went around the corner. I
should have paper-pieced the corners.
It would have been easier. The
top is finished at 56 by 68”.
I really over estimated the number of pieces needed. This is my stack of leftover pieces.
It is good that 4 of these wedges sewn
together can be trimmed up to make a 6 ½” square so I know they will get used somehow.
Love it..
