A few years back, when I was originally creating the Pinwheel Pattern. I needed an easy way to fit more triangles into a smaller space... and the 'Prism' Fold was born!
This fold will give you an easy way to create more narrow triangles, than the more traditional Basic Triangle Fold does... but, what's even better, is that you can adjust the width of your Prism triangles, depending on the pattern you're using.
This short video will show you what I mean. 🙂
You'll find this fold used in these patterns...
The Pinwheel Pattern
The Snowflake Pattern
The Kaleidoscope Pattern
The Bethlehem Star Pattern
The Woven Window Pattern
The Elf Hat Pattern
The Prairie Pinwheel Pattern
The Flurry Pattern
The North Star Pattern
Also Used in Some Crown Ornaments
Great. Thank you!
Beautiful. Question, what size rectangle did you cut to make the Prism Fold.
Maryann, I used a 2 x 3″ rectangle… but you could do this with various sizes, depending on the pattern you’re making. 🙂
Thank you I understand
Great video. Very clear directions. Thank you for this tutorial!
All of the videos I have received from you have audio but a total black screen – I am not able to watch the video :(.
Rhonda, what browser are you using?
excellent.thank you.
Is it ok if the fabric from the first fold over, folds again when you make the right hand fold? This is what happens if I want a small triangle.
