Cheryl unveiled the final hint for her mystery quilt on Monday evening and … it’s a very pretty variation of an Irish chain! For a twist, Cheryl has placed the blocks on point!

This second lot of blocks include simple strip pieced squares and setting triangles.

You can download the instructions in pdf format. We’ll be unveiling the final quilts in March!

For more information on setting blocks on point (turning square blocks 90 degrees), see the following links:

  1. I really like Snuggles Quilts breakdown of how to set blocks on point because it includes clear diagrams, including diagrams of how to conceptualize and number your rows.
  2. For visual learners, you may like Epida Studio’s video outlining how to assemble a quilt on point. 
  3. Another video is Fat Quarter Shop’s video on On Point math, which also has tips on how to handle the bias edge of the setting triangles!
