| Double Time |
Bright
crayon colors outlined with white give this quilt a happy feeling. I
created double hourglass blocks using two Accuquilt dies: 6 ½”
and 3 ½” half square triangles. I had this design idea while
working on the small hourglass quilt a few weeks ago.
The
border is made up of 2 ½” squares with 2 ½” x 4 ½”
rectangles, also cut with AQ dies. I quilted in white thread, using a decorative stitch on the sashing and outlining each square with a straight stitch. Backing is a blue and white
tablecloth check print. Binding is blue and white dots. Double
Time finished out at 41” x 51” size, lovely for a wall
hanging or child's quilt.
I put a
tiny dent in my remnant stash with this one. It gave me an opportunity
to sort and cut a few more scraps before I put everything away. I've
been making an effort to clean up my space between projects. It's so
nice to have clear tables and everything in its place!
