Looking through the cutting dies...........

I have decided the next neutral quilt will be bricks and I will use these dies to cut the pieces.  The brick is a finished 3" x 6" size and I will need 3" finished squares for the beginnings and ends of every other row.  I may come up with one more quilt to cut at the same time.

Cutting two at a time is novel. I will cut extra pieces to add to a scrappy quilt. I think your Studio cutter is so neat. Wish I had the space for one. I need to get more sewn up and ut of there to make space. Enjoy this January thaw. Cold weather is to come. Chris

Two at once is a great idea. I am interested to see how you assemble the bricks and what they look like on the design wall.

Following your lead, I have marked my dies like yours. I use the plain geometric ones a lot especially the HSTs. Love not having to trim them.

Good morning Wanda.....I'm looking forward to seeing how you layout your new quilt. I made a brick quilt many years ago, which was really straight forward, but don't think that's what you have up your sleeve.

Happy we are getting a brief respite from the bitter cold we've been having.

Well now this looks more like one I could tackle (*._.*) Like Sylvia said, "you have something up your sleeve". Taking a simple pattern and designing it into something grand. . .

I see your notations on the die--is that the size of fabric you lay on the die?
