It's April 2026! This month I'm working on the Tulip Trails pattern that is highlighted in the 2026 Calendar for April.

You can read all about the introduction and the first 3 month posts here.
I'm enjoying the process of working with the various tools and patterns. Patterns are available from your local quilt shops and also as PDF downloads directly from Studio 180 Design.

This month, we are again looking at the Star 60 tool. I really like this tool and the instructions that come with the tool. The tool allows me to make units from 1" to 9" and half inch sizes in between.
What makes Studio 180 Design tools different
multi-sized rulers - the tools allow you to make a variety of different sized units.
each tool includes instructions for making the units. There are also free instruction downloads from the website.
left and right-handed cutting
precision - we cut over sized pieces, sew then trim to precise sizes
Give the Tulip Trails pattern and try.
If I have encouraged you in anyway to try some of these techniques and tools, please share.
Here is the video.
Happy Quilting
