We saw it, loved it, made it. Here’s RCQ’s Harvest Road block. Scroll on to read about a sewing helper that will shorten the time you spend making half square triangles.
We used Lella Boutique’s LITTLE TREE prints. Like so many of the blocks we make this clever design uses Half Square Triangles….
You don’t ever have to draw lines on your fabric squares to make half square triangles when you use the Clearly Perfect Angles cling on the bed of your sewing machine.
Here I’m sewing 1/4” away from the diagonal , and don’t need a drawn line to follow- I just use the green angled lines as a guide .
The Clearly Perfect Angles cling works equally as well to guide your stitching on straight 1/4” seams
More about the Big Block Free Pattern Series:
There are 15 ‘I Can Totally Make That’ patterns. All are free patterns courtesy of Moda Fabric and their designers.
All are BIG 18” blocks that could stand alone as a mini quilt , make multiples for a larger throw or bed quilt. Maybe…make all 15 blocks as a sampler quilt? So many ways to go- isn’t that what we love about quilts and quilting?
Please respect the designer’s individual guidelines and use these patterns only for your own personal enjoyment. Read more about this at MODA FABRICS
