How to make 3D Faux Cathedral Window Quilt Blocks

[Tabascopeppers]

Very interesting!  Thanks for sharing!

[ladybugholiday]

i really dont consider this a foux window because its just as much work as the so called real window pattern., this pattern is quite good because it gives the quilter more color choices. Thank you

[Quiltbugs]

Yes, but the shapes you start with are very awkward. This is really the only one that works.

[tam73501]

Have you figured out how to do this technique with other shapes as in the rectangles you use to make the cathedral window?

[TheKevinandshannon]

Thank you so much!!! I understand how to do this now! Thank you!!

[Quiltbugs]

There is no easy way to calculate yardage. You would need to figure the size of your block, then how many blocks per strip, then how many strips.

[Buckleigh]

Great tutorial. I'm sure this would use less fabric than the "traditional" cathedral window, which really appeals to me. Is there any way to caluculate how much yardage would be needed

Thank you for this video post. I used this tutorial to make a baby quilt and ironed on baby wishes in the squares.

This reminds me of a bowtie patch i made years ago. Love cathedral window pattern,and cant wait to start a quilt.

Really awesome technique, keeping posting interesting tips. This is what keeps quilting interesting, real demos that dont break the bank. Thank you.

What a great way to make a Cathedral Window quilt. Realizing it might become heavy, I really like that you can use this method with batting and a backing also. Love it!

Excellent!

[Brees2011]

Ok, your video was so clear on how to make the window, can you add a video on how to sew them together like you explained in your comment? I do so much better with seeing, then reading. Thanks!

[Brees2011]

Very nice! Now is it as easy as sewing the blocks together? because I want the look of the traditional cathedral window quilt.

[Quiltbugs]

Yes, but if you sew four together you will get a circle in the middle. So what you do is treat the four Faux Cathedral Window Blocks as if they were the squares shown in the very beginning to make the four patch. When you sew the four blocks together, insert the large square into the center and you will have 5 Cathedral Window diamonds.

could you please post this step to you tube. I don't understand. I really liked the part you have on you tube.

[spankses]

this is too clever! anf far less fabric hungry than the traditional method...

[serialquilter123]

A very smart solution! TY! Never saw it before!

Wow, thank you so much! I'm in the middle of doing one the hard way! I ironed and folded for four days straight. Ugh. I will use your method for my next one :)

[Helga003]

Instructions are very nicely shown. Loved this video. As a beginner I'm confident even I can manage to make this quilt after seeing this video. The woman who performed the instructions has the perfect voice for this kind of thing. Love to see more!!
