CUTTING

Cut outer borders ﬁrst (see right) and set aside. Tip: When using directional fabric, be sure to note

which direction the pattern follows before cutting. For instance, I used a watery background print

for my quilt. Therefore, on the upper and lower borders, I aligned the water ﬂow with the long part

of the strip. On the side borders, the water ﬂows across them, or horizontally across the pattern. In

this pattern all upper/lower strips have a lengthwise ﬂow and all side strips have a horizontal ﬂow.

Likewise, all triangles are also directional. The cutting instructions below provide enough triangles to

place so that they are also directional in the ﬁnished quilt. However, it is necessary to check place-

ment before stitching each background triangle.
