Studio 180 Design - Quilt Patterns by Deb Tucker

The Bird of Paradise Technique Sheet adds lots of interest to a traditional flying geese block.
By using the Large Square Squared you can create these tricky looking flying geese slightly oversized then trim them down to perfection.
This technique walks you through the process of making four units.
The included chart gives you cutting dimensions for six different sizes, from 1” x 2" to 6" x 12” finished units.
Fun block suggestions are also included.

A fast, easy project using the Tucker Trimmer I tool for all those “hourglass units”.  Deb’s method and ruler will give each quilter accurate units and great looking points every time.  Fun introductory project for the Tucker Trimmer tool.

Spectacular design using Fast Flying Geese and the Wing Clipper I tool to create blocks with no “Y” seam construction.  Adding a bit of applique and a super Migrating Geese border will complete the project with style and impact.

This difficult looking pattern is a cinch using the Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star tool and construction process. The units are strip pieced and assembled with no “Y” seams. Pieced units are trimmed for high precision so matching seams and keeping points becomes a snap! A fast and easy project with the right tool!

My Cyclone Technique Sheet combines strip piecing and the Tucker Trimmer to give you a block that'll blow you away. It's a block that's very different from the typical units you make with your Tucker Trimmer 3, and you'll be amazed at how quickly and easily it comes together. If you're ready for a departure into something different, give Cyclone a try!

Another great technique to use with your Wedge Star tool. You will construct four patch diamonds using strip piecing, trim, add small wedges, and trim the inside point so you have four perfectly sized diamonds in each star point every time. With this technique you can create twenty two block size variations from 6" up to 48" in 2" increments.

Tucker Trimmer to the rescue! When you've got a bunch of half square triangles to make, this is the technique for you. Using the the Eight at Once Technique Sheet, you'll be able to make eight half square triangles at a time. Like with all of Deb’s Techniques your half square triangles will be slightly oversized after you are done sewing and pressing so that you can trim them down with your handy dandy Tucker Trimmer.

If you love jazzing up your stars as much as we do, this is one that you’re not going to want to skip! The Framed 60 Technique Sheet allows you to create a Star 60 unit with a contrasting band of colour added around the outside edge of the diamond. 

Sew six together and you will get a beautiful framed star, but you can also use them in conjunction with other 60° units to create really interesting looks.

The Hollow Cube 60 technique sheet is a great companion for your Star 60 tool! Create some spectacular projects with this amazing technique that gives you the look of light shining through a hollow cube. This technique creates a hexagon that can be added to any 60° project to add the illusion of a multi-dimensional block to your quilt. What fun!!
