What feels like forever ago I was apart of a rainbow charm swap. Sad to admit, it’s been almost two years. These charms have sat in my WIP box with not a lot of inspiration. I even created a board on Pinterest for the project.
As I have started to use Instagram more I found this quilt and really liked it.
The technique is from Quilts from the House of Tula Pink. Take a block any size you want, I chose 5 inch blocks in Kona White. Then squares of whatever size you want. Sew the smaller blocks onto the corners and trim. Pretty easy. With this many squares, it could take a while.
I cut the 5 inch charms into 4 2.5 inch squares and arranged them in rainbow order with high and low volume separates.
So far the pink, red and orange are done. Now I just need to cut SO many more 5 inch white squares. Maybe once P goes to sleep.
To keep the look I want, it’s creating a chevron pattern I didn’t really expect. It’s pleasantly surprising.
