Up North

I have been busy making MyWebQuilter.com easier to use and also allowing you to place quilt blocks manually in the quilt designs. The current automated block placement is handy but does limit the designs you can implement. This new feature makes designing quilts much more flexible.

The new features are underway and will be available soon. In the meantime, let me tell you a little bit about where I live....

I live in the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan in the town of Escanaba. We are having a very early spring up here. Our snow has all melted and our Little Bay de Noc is mostly free of ice. This is VERY unusual for us. Last year we still had at least a foot of snow and the bay was still frozen solid at the end of March.

I took this picture today of one of our local lighthouses with ice flows around it.



Happy quilting!

New Quilt Sash Calculator

I added a new calculator to MyWebQuilter.com to quickly calculate quilt sash fabric requirements.  Just enter the number of columns, rows, block size and sash width.  Additional options include calculations in inches or CM and including a border the same size as the sash.  Click on Calculate to get your sash fabric requirements, quilt dimensions and instructions.  All the MyWebQuilter calculators are easy to use on your mobile phone!

Lawyer's Puzzle Quilt Block Pattern

I am on a roll adding more traditional quilt blocks to www.MyWebQuilter.com . I just added the Lawyer's Puzzle - also known as the Barrister's Block. A 24 block quilt using this block looks like this: You can find the free quilt block pattern here . I love this example of the Lawyer's Puzzle painted on a barn. BTW - Here in the USA there is significance to showing this pattern in green. It is the only green you will have left after paying your lawyer! Happy quilting! Amber
