All of the templates for Swinging Old Lady are included in a new Inklingo shape collection, so you can print the shapes on fabric and make this swinging design by Willyne.
Slideshow
Swinging Old Lady is one of the most popular designs in Willyne Hammerstein’s new Millefiori Quilts 4 book.
No wonder!
Willyne is a genius.
MORE FUSSY CUTTING
Inklingo No Waste Fussy Cutting
Print 10 identical sheets of fabric to get sets of 10 identical shapes. Or print 4 identical sheets of fabric for 4 identical sets. Or 6 identical sheets . . .
Of course, Inklingo is better than acrylic for traditional fussy cutting too.
A video showing how to use Inklingo for traditional Swiss Cheese Fussy Cutting features Lucy Boston Patchwork of the Crosses but it is the same for any design.
UPDATE I included very detailed instructions for two methods of fussy cutting in the new hardcover book, Winding Ways – Quilting the Inklingo Way. All of the info about fussy cutting, hand and machine piecing, and fabric requirements in my new book is useful for ANY pieced design. I recommend it to everyone, so I hope you will have a look.
If you have the right fabric, Inklingo No Waste Fussy Cutting is amazing!
There’s proof on the Quilt Obsession blog. See what Cathi is doing with Fiesta Gitana! Be still my heart!
