Half-square triangles are as basic as it gets, but that doesn’t mean they are boring. Those little easy-to-make blocks are so amazingly versatile, I’ll never stop building with ‘em.

Today’s project, Reflective Stars, is a modern mashup of simple and complex design elements. But because we’re using half-square triangles, construction is a cinch! Click HERE to watch the tutorial.

Sister’s Oregon Trip

Hey everyone! I wanted to take a minute and share some (A LOT) of the pictures from my trip to Sister’s Oregon! I taught some classes at the Quilter’s Affair event and then volunteered at The Stitchin’ Post to sell some Quilt Show gear and checked out the sweet quilts on display! I had an absolute blast but man is it great to be home with my family again!

I taught a few classes this week, the Color Strata Quilt class, Endangered Species Quilt class and Making friends with Your Quilting Machine with Rob Appell and Barbara Shape! All were fun, I can’t ever pick favorites. The quilts from my classes turned out great!!!

It is always great to meet new quilting friends!  This was a last minute photo of Sarah Fielke and I.  She designed the cool Snippets fabric by  Windham that I used in the Weighted Pin Cushion Tutorial.  She is such a nice lady and a great designer!!
