You too, Sandra!! Today has been a sewing room clean-up day...at least one side of the room. 🤣🤣🤣 Need to make room for some Christmas Quilting! 🎄 I already have my batiks ready. Enjoy your week and Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

Your Sewing room sounds like a Sewers Paradise! How fun! Looking forward to your RUclips - always. Thank you🫶

Great tip, Neva! Any flannel shirts I find in thrift shops come with me to be cut up for rag quilts. Especially terrific mixing these with blue jeans. So much quilting out there - how will we ever get it all done? Thanks for stopping by! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

Definitely love my new HST PCB! There will surely be more to follow as I'm already thinking towards the holidays. Be sure to to give these blocks a try. They are quite fun and a great way to us up scraps. Great to have you following along! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

This was made with 2.5 x 4.5-inch rectangles, Sandra. They finish at 2x4-inches. There are quite a few different videos I've done using this method in larger squares. You can use any size as long as the length is twice as long as the width before you add the seam allowance. You can really do a lot with this block. I hope you get to give it a try! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

@@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise thank you! I was a little confused when I found your channel. Loved your pinwheel.

Great question, Sandra! This pattern goes way back and has been used for years under various names. I first saw it published as 'Scrappy Rectangles' and loved it. If you'll notice, it's actually a variation of the Courthouse Steps Log Cabin Block. The difference is that short strips are sewn together to create the longer pieces. The new Potato Chip Block name was given a couple years a go by Brenda of Mount Scrapmore. The idea being that 'You can't make just one'. That was a huge advertising tag line years ago so lots of people recognize it and the name stuck. It's a fun and easy block and incredibly versatile especially with how you place your colors. That's the story and it's been incredibly popular. I know I love making it! Thanks for following along. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

@@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise fun story, thanks again.

Me too, Lila! Wait until you see tomorrow's rag quilt!! I'm on a bit of a rag quilt kick right now 😂 and loving it! Sure appreciate you following along. Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

So glad it helped! The 30/60-degree angles can sometimes take me a minute to get correct. It's not a bad idea to draw your first couple lines in each direction so you can be sure it's what you want. I've come up with some very unusual shapes before! 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks so much for following along! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

Great question! As long as you're using flannel as your middle layer there shouldn't be a problem sewing it either way. The corner to corner method is necessary when batting is used in the middle. Sewing corner to corner secures it really well. With flannel in the middle the seams are already holding it place. The additional 'quilting' just holds all the layers together for a nicer, smooth look. Thanks so much for following along! Happy Quilting, Lea Louise

@@InspiredQuiltingbyLeaLouise thank you! I plan on flannel for all layers

Actually there is a new Cheat Sheet/Pattern.

It has 25 different quilt sizes using various size blocks. Plus there's a yardage conversion chart so you know how much fabric to buy. I've been working on it and it's finally finished!
