Later in the year, I’m teaching a class at Creative Craft Retreat. This year it will be a quilt with half square triangles.  I’ve been working on the sample quilt and I just have to share it with you. I love it!

Now I know it is Summer at Christmas time here in Australia so we really don’t need quilts, but I plan to hang this one in our entrance.

I experimented with a few different arrangements of the triangles but I really like the final choice. You can see some of the others in my Planning a Quilt post.

I also love the stripey binding.

A few details:

  • Made from two charm square sets – one set of Kona solid in Snow and one set of Ready Set Snow by Me & My Sister
  • Binding: green and white stripe from the Ready Set Snow range
  • Back: red and white Christmas print from Spotlight

  2. Oh! That is perfect for Christmas. I always wanted to learn how to do quilting. I admire those who knows this craft because they could produce artistic designs that could be use as blanket, table cloth, pillow case and more.

    • Thanks, Vynette. It really isn’t all that hard. I’ll have a beginners baby quilt tutorial over at Mum’s Business blog next week so watch out for that one

  3. Your Christmas quilt is just gorgeous! I keep getting new ideas every time I read your blog but now have too many on the go and a cranky husband at the pieces laying all over the place! I really, really want to do the retreat this year but alas I think study and work commitments are going to keep me away for another year. DEFINITELY next year!

    • Oops! Sorry, Nick!

      But yay that you’re inspired!!That’s my goal!

      A shame you can’t get to Retreat 🙁 It will still be there next year though…

  4. Thanks so very much for sharing this Christmassy post at my Say G’day Saturday party! I have just shared it on Pinterest, Facebook, Google+ and twitter! I love it!

    This week’s party has started so please pop by if you have a minute.

    Best wishes for a lovely weekend,
