    Start here! Make your own version of the spectacular Patchwork of the Crosses (POTC) by Lucy Boston and enjoy every stitch.

    Lucy Boston (1892-1990) used English Paper Piecing, but you can choose your own method and get better results, faster. Inklingo makes it easy for you.

    “Tried to do Patchwork of the Crosses the traditional way but as I have arthritis in my fingers I found sewing with the templates too hard. Looked on your website, purchased Inklingo and a new printer, and am enjoying sewing by hand again. I just love the ease of use and have told all my friends to give it a try.” Carolyn in NSW Australia

    It is much easier to print the shapes on fabric with Inklingo (TWO methods of fussy cutting, video tutorial) and sew with a running stitch.

    I hope you will join the Patchwork of the Crosses Facebook Group too.

    There are many reasons for quilters to switch from acrylic templates and English Paper Piecing to Inklingo.

    • use a rotary cutter or scissors
    • more accurate than using templates (see the video, link above)
    • perfect for hybrid piecing (see the video, tab, and link above)
    • notes about fussy cutting (see the video, link above!)
    • many extra shapes to expand your design options
    • a choice of layouts for different straight grain
    • shapes fit on Jelly Rolls and small scraps

    An optional companion book, Lucy Boston Patchwork of the Crosses, contains wonderful photographs of the original quilt, including a large centerfold.

    The two-hour hand piecing lesson in Quilted Diamonds 2 is like taking a private lesson from me. The beautiful book and DVD are available again.
