I really like this one. Reminds me of a bento box.

Re: New chop block tutorial
Like it! I thought Bento Box, but it seems somewhat different to me.
Nope, looked at google images, they are the same, three courses of fabric is the usual way they are made.Last edited by Jean Sewing Machine; July 10, 2014, 10:53 PM.Comment

Re: New chop block tutorial
It's the same as bento box, but who cares? Now we know how to do it without having to buy a pattern. We can spend the $ on fabric instead.Comment

Seems like an easier way to do a Bento, which is what Jenny's tutorials are all about.K is for Karen 😊​ Albuquerque, NM..................

Re: New chop block tutorial
I think when they do them, they have to change the name?? Not sure though.

Re: New chop block tutorial
It's new to me, I have no idea what a Bento is. LOL. Go Jenny!Originally posted by K. McEuen View Post
Jeesh Louise! I looked up the Bento Box and found a couple of tuts on it... I got dizzy with all of the cutting pieces, labeling stacks... BOOM... Jenny hit this one out of the park!!
If I ever make it, I will use Jenny's method. That woman is revolutionizing Quilts with precuts! Jenny... You are the WOMAN!Last edited by kensington; July 10, 2014, 11:18 PM.Comment

Re: New chop block tutorial
Ryan did one and has pictures, step by step almost. Doing it this way you get the blocks done faster. http://forum.missouriquiltco.com/sho...aby-quilt.htmlOriginally posted by kensington View PostK is for Karen 😊​ Albuquerque, NM..................

Re: New chop block tutorial
Jenny's is faster as you don't have to cut your strips or cut them all into small pieces before you sew anything. Right?Comment

Re: New chop block tutorial
I've seen Bento Box quilts around, but I've always just assumed that you'd make a block, cut it in four and rearrange them anyway.Originally posted by K. McEuen View Post
It's even quicker if you just chain piece the white parts of the blocks, because you don't have to get up and get after every side.Comment

Re: New chop block tutorial
I'm sure it's the Bento Box but I think it's the patterned fabric that skews the look of it. Here's one on point (hope the pic is there!) I have in my to do file which I prefer to the straight up design. Hope it's as easy as Jenny makes it look.
