While teaching a class on the Studio 180 Doubly Charmed pattern my curiously got the best of me. I wanted to know what would happen if I put the blocks on point instead of straight rows as the pattern calls for. This was the result. I also made the border corner beams smaller and added an extra corner beam in the corners completing the design. For the inside border I used the background fabric which caused the center pattern to float. What do you think?
This is what I love about Deb Tucker’s Studio 180 tools. You get to be the designer. You have the tools in your hands to make a different size, change the block, change the border. When a new idea pops into my mind I have everything I need to create the block with the Studio 180 tools. So much fun, and I’m only limited by my imagination, and time, yes, that.

I love everything about quilting. I love the colors, the feel of the fabrics, the piecing, the quilting , and even putting on the binding! I free motion quilt using a Bernina 780, longarm quilt (free motion or ruler work), on a Prodigy , and hand quilt when I get a chance.
I have been teaching quilting since 2004, and became a Certified Studio 180 Design Instructor in 2013. In 2020 I became an Island Batik Ambassador, and an Island Batik Designer in 2021. I teach locally at Bernina Connection, in Tallahassee, and travel to guilds and shops to share my love of quilting through a trunk show or workshops, and I also vend at several Quilt Shows in the area.
