TOPIC: Mitred Corners, Kaleidoscope Quilt

11 Jul 2009 22:39 #36577

Thank you Margo...I checked it out and understand it but the glue? that scares me...and how, what stitch do you use after the glue? My mind says the only stitch that could put the folds together would be a zigzag... can you see my confusion? wish I could see someone sewing it after the glue....perhaps I am just confusing myself needlessly!

Lissette..I would love to see you make one too...do you have the DVD? Keep me posted, it is really easy and goes together well when it's done correctly :) ! My next one will be much improved...you go girl!!! Verlie

Verlie, while you are waiting for instructions from the staff, you may find this entry in my Webshots tutorial useful. I'm showing how I mitered one of the border strips in my pieced TQS BOM, but maybe it will help you with your project. Good luck!

Thank you Marge..it is fun and exciting too. I have been making Kaleidoscopic artwork and Patterns since 1995 in the hopes of making quilts...Even named my former gallery Kaleidoscopic Art Market so I am awed at Ricky's easy method for Kool Kaleidoscopes! Sure hope someone answers me soon so I can start the next one. Have a great day! Verlie

My suggestion is to send the question to Ricky. He has a great explanation of how to do mitre corners. Unfortunately I don't have that explanation or I would type it out for you. Plus many books give descriptions but so far they have not helped me because I still have problems. Bobbi

Mitred Corners, Kaleidoscope Quilt 11 Jul 2009 07:38 #36553

I am soooo excited to near the finish of my first Kaleidoscope quilt (2nd quilt ever) and I have the DVD/instructions. Problem is I'm hearing impaired. IF Ricky says how to miter the corners of the borders....I didn't 'catch it' because his back was to the camera and I lip-read.....I made every mistake possible with this quilt...but is still going on the wall of my studio because I love the colors. The next one will be much better....Thanks for any help you can give me! :D
