Mini Quilt Retreat

Hi!

We are having a mini Quilt Retreat this week, me and Weronica here in Sweden and Cathi in Ireland..

Weronica was working on a Storm at Sea with the Square in a Square ruler, and is now working on a quilt from the CoffeeTable Quilts book, called decaffinated. In blues, greens and whites.


I did a test with the Square in the Square ruler to make Half Square Triangles. It did work, but it creates a lott of waste, a bit to much for my taste, plus that the sides of the HST are on the Bias. So it was nice to try, but I won't do it again. This was the result. The pieces are 1,5 inches.




I am now working on the Home Sweet Home Quilt from Blackbird Design. So I am tracing the flisofix pieces, so I have nothing to show so far...but will update the blog when I have something to show...


So we will be having this retreat today and friday too!

Thanks for all the tips on my redfabrics, I will start testing this weekend!
