Instructions

Scroll down to the octagon...

I do not have a ruler appropriate to make this 45° angle. So I had to modify what I did the get the right angle and to make it an actual isosceles.

What was your inspiration?

I saw the fun with stripes tutorial pinned by craftsy and it reminded me of a movie. The wine glasses my husband and I registered for our wedding kind of reminded us of this movie too, so I thought it would make a great opportunity to practice my free motion quilting.

What are you most proud of?

The center came together much better than I would have hoped!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Get the kaleidescope ruler from Quilt in a Day or through Amazon. It would make it much easier!
