Ray Quilt Along #2: Cut It Out.

This week, let’s cut everything out! Grab your fabrics and cutting guide, and let’s have some fun.

Here’s the video.

How about that? I’m pretty excited about where mine ended up, and I can’t wait to sew it together in the next video.

    Thanks for another great video. Your colours are so lovely, think I have gone dreary! Will have another think when I cut them on the weekend.

    Decided yesterday to join quilt along! Picked fabric from stash today and started cutting. Need to mull placement and then cut some more. Not sure where I’m going with it but having fun. The variations of your quilts are inspiring!

    Thanks for these videos. It’s so fun to see it come together in the play between cutting and layout … and too tempting to not begin sewing as you go! It’s exactly the short, satisfying pattern I needed for the end of 2020
