I am working on my 4th 10-inch square pattern. For this quilt I used a Kaffe Fassett 10 inch 'Lipstick' pack from the Classics Collection and a half stack of Kona Cotton Birds of Paradise Collection.
I knew I wanted to do something with half square triangles so I sewed a bunch together.
From each set of a solid and print 10 in square I was able to get 8 half square triangle blocks.
The Kaffe Fassett bundle had 2 squares of 8 different fabrics and 3 squares of 2 different fabrics. I used on square for the half square triangle blocks and I cut a 4.5 inch square from the second square of each of the different fabrics. I arranged and rearranged the squares and finally decided on this block.
I had some great suggestions for the name of my last 10 inch square quilt. I would love suggestions for this one. I am so bad at naming quilts. Any ideas?

How about calling it "10 - 4" since (according to Wikipedia) in CB slang it means "ok, we understand your message" --- and we do, you like working with layer cake squares to make quilts! I just cut some out myself to make one, so I get it.
ReplyDeleteI love the block you've chosen for this one! Maybe you could name it after your favorite lipstick color :) The colors are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLove the richness of these blocks.
ReplyDeleteI have a question though, what measurement did you use to get those 8 HST plus the center square? I printed it out and think I might have a layer cake to process with this technique. lol and Thanks!
