Valerie created this quilt using thangles, but you could use method of half square triangles.
Description
In this workshop Valerie shows how to make simple and easy half-square triangles. By using the one-strip cutting method from Thangles.
Thangles work perfectly with jelly rolls and all those other 2 1/2″ strip roll pre-cuts. Thangles work well with 5″ and 10″ squares too. Use scraps cut into 2 1/2 inch strips. A great way to use up left overs from Layer cakes and Nickel packs.
This design would convert very easily into a multicolour scrap quilt, and you could set the blocks simply with standard sashing and cornerstones.
Valerie also suggests checking which foot you are using on the machine. It’s easier with something that has an open toe, worth considering.
