Hope Valley Quilt

Pattern is a FREE Denyse Schmidt Pattern posted on the FreeSpirit website:

freespiritfabric.com/graphic-elements/gallerys/t260_1.pdf

 

I made my quilt larger by adding an additional row and column.

 

Fabrics used: Entire collection of Hope Valley by Denyse Schmidt and Robert Kaufman Kona Solid in Snow & Ivory.

Back: Calico Cactus from Denyse Schmidt in Fiesta

Binding: Robert Kaufman Kona Solid in Snow

 

Lesson Learned: Sewing Instructions #2 says to "trim 4 of the blocks 1/4" past the center point on the short side of the block to make the half blocks". Trim to 1/2" !!!!! It will make your life a whole lot easier . It also shows 1/2" on Diagram 2.

 

If you've never done Paper Piecing before, read this tutorial before starting. I wish I did :) .
