Folded Corner Cutting Charts for Electric Quilt Blocks - An Electric Quilt 8 Tutorial

One question I am frequently asked is -- "How do I make a quilt that I designed in Electric Quilt?" There are many ways to approach piecing a block. I love working with folded corners as all the pieces are squares and rectangles. No cut triangles are required when using this technique. The folded corner technique refers to a method of adding triangles to a quilt block using only square or rectangle pieces of fabric. It is frequently the suggested method for creating snowball blocks, square within a square units and flying geese units. However, when we design in Electric Quilt, EQ does not give us rotary cutting measurements that are conducive to using the folded corner technique. My video tutorial will share with you how to create cutting charts that utilize the folded corner construction technique. This technique works best for blocks with patches that are square or rectangle and have 45 degree angles.
