New ruler fun time

Recently I discovered Cheryl Phillips had a new ruler out called the Perfect 7 and being the ruler junkie I am I had to order it. These are what I made with it. So fun!!!  Included with the ruler are 7 different round toppers you can make. These finish at 23"  You make strips sets first and then using the guide lines on the ruler you cut your wedges, using 14 wedges for each topper. Then you applique the little circle in the middle. That circle kinda puffed up a bit after I quilted the wedges and they remind me of the old metal buttons you cover.  I am addicted to making them!!  I did find a mistake in one of the diagrams on the instruction sheet-the second diagram for the Chubby Spinner(my snowman one below).  You have to lay the ruler for both strip colors the same way. I alerted Cheryl about it and she apologized and said they would pull those instructions asap and fix.






I'll be linking up with other inspiring bloggers at some of the neat linky parties!!  Have a great week everyone;-)

  14. That is an awesome deal to get a ruler and seven patterns!! I may have to try it. Would you say a confident beginner could do these? I like to say I'm a 'try anything once' person, and give it my all. :)
