This is one of my favorite quilts that I’ve made. I like so much about it – the combination of four patch and half square triangles. The fabric. The colors. The size, which is perfect for couch napping.
The top was made with a layer cake and a charm pack of the fabric line Road 15 by Sweetwater for Moda. I bought Kona solids in matching colors and started to slice. I used almost every scrap of the fabric, cutting the final square blocks to 8 1/2 inches.
The backing fabric was a great green and white houses design. I didn’t have quite enough, so I added some additional Road 15 yardage, and bought some crosshatched deep red fabric for the binding.
This is the third project I’ve made with Road 15. I sewed a Go Anywhere bag from a Noodlehead pattern and a matching ipad cover from the red houses print, which is my favorite of the favorites. Something about those little houses just really appeals to me. I have additional yardage of it to play with in the future.
