There’s something about just jumping and starting a new project. It’s exciting and fun! 

And even better when the quilt only take a day to put together. Well, at least the quilt top, that is. 

I decided to jump in with the Moda Charm Pack Challenge and grabbed one of the charm pack that is already in my stash.

Picking out the charm pack

I have enough charm pack to start this project. It only uses one charm pack!

This is great for this stash of Charm Packs you already have in stash.

But if you want to check out for more fun Charm Packs that are currently ON SALE, Check it out HERE>

The pattern is perfect for the charm pack with bright colours or with those two colour line.

I picked out the background fabric and cut out the required background units. I selected only the full colour charm squares and omit those with lighter colours to ensure I get good contrast with the background.

Piecing the Charm Pack Quilt

Then it was all about piecing the half square triangles, trimming and pressing.

Which I actually enjoy though. The satisfied feeling of getting those half square triangles trimmed to just the right size with crispy edges is just a good feeling.

I am loving my Stripology Squared ruler for trimming the half square triangles. You can read more about how to use the Stripology Ruler to trim your patchwork units here. It’s game changing for me. I love the idea of pushing the rotary cutter in the same direction for all the trimming I need done.

And here’s a fun short video on how I did that. 

 

 

I also implemented the spider chain piecing technique to make sure all my pieces are in the correct order as I piece the rows together.

Quilting Tools and Notions I used:

here the finish quilt top! Or Quilt centre… I am thinking of adding border and more fun patchwork pieces around this block just so I can get a larger quilt.

You can also make 4 of this unit from 4 charm packs to make a larger quilt too. 

The final size of this block is 32″ squares and it would make a perfect baby quilt or a table topper.
