Carnival Ride Finale: Samples







The samples show the sewing sequence. Note that half the small star pieces are joined to the diagonal line of the background piece and half to the horizontal/vertical line. The cushion illustrates the clockwise drafting, the completed block the anti clockwise. This isn't quite the end - more examples tomorrow - nothing if not thorough!

Carnival Ride 04: drafting the small star points






If you worked round in a clockwise direction to draft the large star points you now work in an anti-clockwise direction to draft the small star points, putting your ruler on a centre side and alternate diagonal point to draw four of them and on a diagonal point and alternate centre side for the the other four.
The block is now fully drafted.
