Cutting Tumblers and GIVE AWAY


If you want to win this 5" tumbler template GO HERE and leave a comment.
 
 

This template was designed to be used with charm packs, but can easily be used with any size fabric.
 
 
Here is a photo of the template with a five inch square of fabric (charm pack size)


Here is how it could be used with fat quarters.
 
 
Simply press and trim off selvages (save for later).
 

Cut a five inch strip. I have three fat quarters layered here.
 

Trim the first end.
 

Then trim the second side.
 

Flip the template and repeat.
 

All the way across your five inch strip.
 

**Caution, this could be addictive. But go ahead and keep cutting because this is going to be a really cute (and easy) quilt!

Tomorrow we will see how to chain piece and "web" the rows. Thursday I will show you how and why to use the "half tumbler" marking on the template. Friday I will announce the WINNER of the template, so don't forget to go HERE and enter the give away!

Enjoy every stitch!
