I originally designed the Clamshell Edges 4-inch shape collection to offer the 4 shapes to finish clamshell quilts with a straight edge—but it does so much more! There is inspiration everywhere for new block designs.

There are other Clamshell shape collections available, so you can buy exactly what you need. The 4-inch Clamshell and 4-inch Clamshell Rose are sold separately.

Sewing with Inklingo is more fun because everything fits perfectly, presses well, and lies flat when you have matching marks on the curves and a line to sew along.

You can hand piece or machine piece the larger sizes.

Features of this Shape Collection (Download)

• partial Clamshell shapes to print on fabric for quilt edges OR new block designs
• diagrams showing how much fabric you need
• ideal for small scraps
• shapes without seam allowances to print on freezer paper (just in case you want templates)

There are many reasons quilters switch from templates to Inklingo.

• use a rotary cutter or scissors
• ideal for small scraps
• instructions for sewing curves by hand and by machine
• notes about pressing
• perfect for fussy cutting and charm quilts as described on the blog
• design notes
• worksheets to plan your quilt

The preparation is so much simpler that you can spend extra time playing with new designs.

There are wonderful opportunities for fussy cutting with TWO Inklingo methods, and you can get perfect points (above) with Inklingo. The fine, precise lines printed on the fabric simplify the cutting and sewing. Why I don’t sell acrylic templates.

Pinterest is a wonderful source of inspiration for these partial clamshells.

The shapes are laid out to use fabric efficiently. Use a rotary cutter or scissors.

Love the lines. Quilt more!

Relax and sew! Spend your time sewing, not getting ready to sew. Print the cutting and stitching lines on scraps from your stash.

If you are new to Inklingo, I strongly recommend starting with the free Diamond Triangle Square shape collection. It includes the first chapter of The Inklingo Handbook and some great shapes to print on fabric to get you started.
