Say goodbye to the traditional way of making the Kaleidoscope block. No more cutting all those sharp-angled triangles that get eaten in your machine's throat plate. The smart way of piecing the traditional Kaleidoscope block uses a revolutionary template developed by author Sharon Sebrow. Whether creating a block with corners or without, even a beginner will have the same results an experienced quilter will enjoy when making a Kaleidoscope the Smart Way. Quilters will appreciate having 12 projects with clear instructions for both right and left hand template use. The book uses a number of layouts to demonstrate the versatility of this handy method: side by side, on point, framing fussy cuts, and more. Sharon Sebrow developed a unique template to encourage beginning quilting students to tackle this challenging block. An award-winning quilter, she continues to teach and inspire students of all ages and skill levels from her home in Teaneck, New Jersey. Also available companion templates; #8003 6 inch Kaleidoscope Smart Plate and #8004 12 inch Kaleidoscope Smart Plate.
