Playing with Tube quilting



I made a couple blocks from scraps- the first one I did the way they tell us here-( google- you tube +tube quilting). It is a tute by Missouri Star Quilt company and she uses the 45 degree line on a regular ruler.I used 2 -2 1/2 inch strips and 1- 4 1/2 inch strip- all are wof. The second one is cut into 6- 2 1/2 in strips and my friend showed up with a special ruler so I used it on the bigger block. Both rulers worked good. The blocks are not squared up but you get an idea of what I did. Hope this helps if you want to try it.
