Patchwork Jigsaw 5, 6 from Virtual Quilter

A very interesting design!

These designs are no where as hard to do if you use the no pins method of joining the two curved pieces. Then I would start at the right hand side and chain piece the first two rows on the left, then continue chain piecing squares to the right hand side, using the diagram as a guide. In workshops I had students finish a cot quilt top in a day, including cutting, piecing the curves and joining the top.

Spinning Arches 1, 2 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting version of Patchwork Jigsaws, formally known as Drunkard’s Path.

Flip every second block left to right, and the Drunkard’s Path link becomes much more obvious!

Patchwork jigsaw Basics 3, 4 from Virtual Quilter

Some rather dull time at the machine piecing the curves, followed by a fair amount of time concentrating hard can bring some interesting results.

I think I would have to vote for the second design as my favourite of these two.
