How to Make Drunkards Path Quilt:
Step 1
Get 2 fabrics of opposite colors and cut them into 8½-inch squares, then get another fabric of either color and cut it into a 6-inch square. Cut the fusible web into a square at 6 inches, then place it on the wrong side of one of the larger fabric squares, and iron it out to fuse.
Step 2
Let it cool and peel off the backing paper, then take the square and fold it in half diagonally making sure its right sides are facing, and then lay it on your cutting aligning the point with the line.
Step 3
Use a round ruler to cut the piece into a half circle, then unfold the piece, and lay it nicely on your work surface making sure its wrong side is facing up. Place the smaller square on top right where the glue is, then put a paper on top, and iron it out to fuse the fabrics together.
Step 4
Now, for the cutout circle, place it in the center of the other large square, then iron it down, and stitch the circles around with a blanket or zigzag stitch.
Step 5
Trim the blocks and cut them in half from both directions, then rearrange them however you, or refer to the video tutorial. Stitch them per row and then the rows to each other, and press as you go.
