A magical toy for kids of all ages. Designed 60+ years ago using wood - we wish we could give credit to where it originally came from. If anyone knows, please send us the information. This pattern is available for download. We also have kits that come with the pre-cut foam cubes needed to make the toy.

Talking Points is a block design - a zigzag every 2" gives 12 wedge shaped pieces. The block is made by paper piecing using preprinted foundation paper uniquely printed on both sides so you can make either the regular block or the mirror block from the same paper.
Designing with Talking Points is fun! Flip your block, mirror it, change the colors from graduating (light to dark) or alternating (light and dark) to completely change the 'look' for totally unique results. All the samples in the slides are made with 4 blocks and 8 borders. Dramatic differences are due to fabric selection, block and border orientation and border color. |
