It's been a long time in the making, but the day has finally come! There has been a lot of indecision, rethinking, tweaking going on behind the scenes, but I think...I think I have all the details and kinks worked out! 'SPARKLE' is ready for release and I couldn't be happier for this day to have finally arrived SPARKLE PDF PATTERN ‘SPARKLE’ is 52" x 65" bold, bright and graphic lap quilt that features half-square triangles with a little bit of attitude! This design has been floating around in my head and I’ve made numerous variations throughout the years. I seem to ‘follow the rainbow’ when picking my colors, but there are unlimited options if you choose to change it up. When making HST’s I prefer to use the Two-at-a-Time method which allows me to use a variety of colors. I also make my HST’s larger than required, and trim each one to the size required. The measurement given in the cutting instructions allows for trimming without being overly wasteful. You will also use the Flip & Stitch method and nesting seams for the accent squares. To add to the pattern, all instructions are illustrated. Half Square triangle magic, flip and stitch and nested seams are some of the highlights of this design. Simple techniques that make precision easier to achieve. I just about exclusively use solids my most of my designs, but there are so many options available! Check out what these ladies did with their quilts! They not only make beautiful versions of my design, but their attention to detail, feedback and suggestions are invaluable. I couldn't do it without them!
