Lessons from an Old SUPER Scrappy Quilt Top
This super scrappy vintage quilt top is something to see! It is eclectic, busy, and wonders. It shows how using just two blocks can make a really cool secondary pattern.
Lessons From An Old Half-Square Triangle Quilt
Antique quilts are my favorite, and this one is no exception! I just love how the maker used a simple scrappy half-square triangle block, or as sometimes called HST, to make a lovely quilt. Half square triangles are so versatile and quilts made with half square triangles are stunning. We can see from vintage and antique quilts that this isn't a new idea in quilt making. It is a classic design that we can all use to make amazing quilts from scraps.
Lessons from an Antique Scrap Quilt
I have had this quilt in my collection for about two years now and have been waiting to share it with everyone. I am not sure why I waited so long—it is a beauty. Maybe I wanted to keep it to myself for a little longer? That is probably it. Although I say this about all the old quilts I review, this really is a favorite, and possible the one that has taught me the most. At one point I was going to make this my 100th Lessons from an Old Quilt video because it is so special, but I changed my mind. The time is now to share this one with the world. I hope you love it as much as I love it.
