Finally, I can reveal the secret. I was fortunate enough to be asked to be a tester for the new Inklingo. I wish I did, but I have no financial interest in Inklingo at all. Edited to Add: It is totallly Mac compatible!! I tested it on my Mac and it works like a charm!
These are the blocks/small quilts I have made with this free collection — so far. I’m playing with the idea of making a small Lone Star quilt too using these shapes. :-)) First I made this block:
Then this block:

Here’s the best news! The shapes for the 4.5″ LeMoyne Star blocks are free to download from inklingo.com. There are three new collections available for purchase as well! All you need is a computer (Mac or PC) and an inexpensive inkjet printer as well as some fabric and freezer paper and you too can try out Inklingo. Be warned — it’s addictive! There are more new collections coming too!
This is the first little quilt top I made using the shapes. Because of the precision of the lines and matching points, it is SO easy to make these!
It’s quilted and a couple of the bears decided to test it out on the weekend. They decided it was just right for an afternoon out, as you can see from the picture at the top of this post.
I have wanted to make the Snow Crystal block for ages and now, with this collection, it was dead easy. This block finishes at 9″. This may be the start of my pink and white quilt. I’m still deciding on that.
This is going to be a small wallhanging. I’ve got the setting triangles ready and have been stitching them in. Still deciding on a border for this. I love having the plain setting squares for some hand quilting. I’m going to go through my stencils and see what I can find — maybe a tiny feathered wreath. π


Wow Cathi, that is exciting. My favorite is the pink chrystals. So pretty. I’ll have to check that out.

Are you hand piecing the blocks? They are fantastic. I’d like to get Inklingo, but the last time I checked it wasn’t available for Apple Computers.

Love the little quilt! Thanks for letting us in on your secret!I wanted to do the snow crystal last year for a swap . I may have to look into inkligo and a new printer that will allow fabric to feed through.

They are all terrific. I can’t believe the snow crystal block is only 9″. that is a lot of pieces for a block that size.
