Do you have a copy of my book? This pdf file shows the differences between the book and the current TRIMplates. A New Light on Storm a Sea Quilts / New TRIMplate Guide (pdf)
Email me at [email protected] if you need help with any of the patterns in my book. The cutting instructions were written for the original TRIMplates, which have been discontinued. I can “translate” those patterns for you, with cutting charts for my current TRIMplates.
If you are ready to try your hand at designing your own Storm at Sea quilt, you can use these design grids: Storm at Sea Design Grids (pdf)
NEW! My latest TRIMplate is the Flying Geese Trimmer. Use your favorite method to make blocks with oversize pieces. The Trimmer makes squaring up easy! You only need to find one number: the finished height of the block. Download a pdf file of instructions below. My favorite method is in the last pdf file.
