Mystery quilt Advent 2004
Clue 3

 
 
 

19. You will need 

  • 8 yellow squares 2”x 2”.

Draw a diagonal line with a pencil on the wrong side of the 8 squares (fig. 9).

 

 

 

20. You will need 

  • 1 blue square 3”x 3 ½”.

Place 1 yellow square 2”x 2” on one corner of a blue (background) rectangle, right sides together.

 

  21. Sew on the diagonal line (fig. 10).

  22. Open up and press the triangle towards the corner (fig. 11).

 

23. You will need 

  • 3 blue rectangles 3”x 3 ½” and 

  • 3 yellow squares 2”x 2”.

Place each of the yellow squares in the same corner as in nr. 20 and do as told in nr. 21
and nr. 22.

You should now have 4 blocks with a yellow triangle in one corner as shown in fig. 11.

 

 

24. You will need 

  • 4 yellow squares 2”x 2” and the 

  • 4 blocks from nr. 23.

Place each of the yellow squares onto the blocks in one corner, right sides together, so that the two triangles meet on the 3 ½” side of the rectangle when done (fig. 12).

Sew and press as mentioned under no. 21 and no. 22. 

 

  25. You will need 
  • 1 orange square 3 ½” x 3 ½” and 
  • 4 blue (background) squares 3” x 3”.
  26. Arrange the pieces as shown (fig. 13) and sew the star-block together.

 

27. You will need 

  • 2 blue (dark background) squares 7”x 7”.

 

28. Cut the squares diagonal (from corner to corner) to get four triangular pieces (fig. 14).

 

 

 

29. You will need 

  • 1 blue (dark background) square 12” x 12”.

 

 

30. Cut the squares diagonal (from corner to corner) twice to get four triangular pieces (fig. 15).

 

 

 

31. You will need 

  • 2 angel-blocks from nr.18 and 

  • the star-block from nr.26, 

  • the small triangles from nr. 28, and 

  • the larger triangles from nr. 30.

This is where you have to decide if this will be a table-runner or a wall-quilt.

 

 

Arrange the blocks and the triangles as shown 
(fig. 16).

(If you want a table-runner, the angel’s head should be towards the star-block in the middle.)

 

 


.

 

32. Sew the pieces together in rows as shown:

A. small triangle – angel-block – large triangle (fig.17)

 

  B. large triangle – star-block – large triangle (fig. 18)
  C. large triangle – angel-block – small triangle (fig. 19)
 

33. Sew the rows together: A to B, and B to C.

The blocks should meet in the middle.

Tip: If you want to, you can start in the middle of a row and sew towards the edges to make sure the blocks line up in the middle.

 

 

34. At last sew the two small triangles from nr. 28 to the corners of the angel-blocks in the A-row and the C-row (fig. 20)

See if you have to cut the edges to make them even, - then do so.

35. Press and layer the quilt-top with backing and batting, - baste.

36. Quilt as desired.

37. Sew the binding together and then around the quilt.  

I hope you enjoyed this little mystery.
