This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Craftsy Block of the Month 2012 »

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Traditional


Materials

my background fabric and assorted black and white prints

What was your inspiration?

To learn new techniques through the block of the month

What are you most proud of?

They were actually 12.5 inch blocks when I got done putting them together!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Make the half square triangles bigger... especially the sew around the outside and cut into four... that way you can trim down to square them. a few of mine I intentionally "stretched" with the iron to be square.

Love your background fabric. That really makes everything look great. I went with white, but now I wish I didn't. Beautiful work and color combos.

I love the color combination - that blue is great with the black and white.

Love your color choice - the black and white with a striking accent color. I haven't pulled my fabrics yet, and you've provided inspiration (though it won't be the same colors). I agree with Shazdove - your finished quilt will be beautiful.
