Liz showed us how to design 'disappearing blocks' using paper and masking tape at the meeting in January, then we all experimented with some designs. Here are a few examples.
Four-patch block with straight cuts
Four-colour, four-patch blocks (two identical blocks) with diverging cuts and the centre sections swapped
A variation on the last design
This one gives a basket-weave effect (which might be more visible with the right choice of colours and tones)
And finally a nine-patch block (two identical blocks, diagonal cuts and alternate pieces swapped over)
At the next meeting, we will be trying out some simple printing using every day objects. A requirements list will be posted here shortly and also emailed to members of the group.
Please make a comment below if you would like to receive information about the group.
