Small Town, BIG CITY

Tumbling blocks – two ways! Dramatic and graphic. You will learn how to use the Polygon and Polygon 2 Tools, and how to master Butterfly and partial seams. Proposed finish size is approximately 43" x 44”; however, you can always add more blocks to achieve a larger quilt. You can also make small town – BIG CITY in miniature using the Polygon Template Set.

Kit Fee: $32 includes pattern and Polygon2 Tool- Kit fee will be added to your ticket price below. 

Supplies needed:

Fabric Requirements:

 BIG CITY BLOCKS: 1 yard each of 3 different fabrics (light, medium, dark)

 small town blocks: 1/4 yard each of 3 different fabrics

All leftovers can be used on the backing and binding. If you want to create this design in miniature (using my mini templates) you will need the Polygon Template Set. And about quarter of all supplies.

(2) thread colors, one for the top and another in the bobbin and that is visible on the wrong side of fabric; seam ripper; thread snips; rotary cutter, ruler and mat; extension cord; straight pins; finger pressing tool; and batting to use as a design wall (optional)

Gyleen’s thoughts:

I’m obsessed with tumbling blocks and rejoice in each variation I sketch. This city scape is no different. I selected small prints of light, medium and dark for BIG CITY blocks and one bold color in three tones for the small town blocks. To achieve the 3D effect you need light, medium and dark at some level. However, you could be the 1st that goes off grid with a nice surprise. Go for it.
