The kaleidoscope quilt (eo-1) was my first project with the fabric. The pattern I have divides fabric into three shades: light, medium, and dark. Each block is composed of eight large triangles and four corner triangles. Half of the large triangles are dark or medium. The other half are light or medium.
A block looks like:
The intended block-size is 6" square. The quilt will have 56 blocks arranged in an 8x7 grid, with no border. The corner triangles on the perimeter of the quilt will be dark.
To prepare for this, I will need:
149 dark triangles for octagon
150 medium triangles for octagon
149 light triangles for octagon
Cut strips 3 15/16" x fabric width. The template has a base width of 2 5/16". I used an acrylic triangle template to divide up fabric strips.
I will also need:
52 dark corner triangles
172 medium and light corner triangles
Cut strips 2 5/8" x fabric width. The corner triangle dimension has two short sides of 2 5/8". I used an acrylic template to divide up fabric strips.
