Road 15 Detour

Posted by *Staci* on Sunday, August 4, 2013. Filed under: , , , , , , , ,


My Road 15 Charm packs arrived last week so as usual I abandoned my current project and started a new one.
At least it was another Road 15 project.


I made some half square triangles out of all the charm squares for some pinwheel action.


After that disaster..(only 75% of the pinwheels turned out decent. Apparently I need to work on my matching points in triangles) I constructed this fun little mini quilt.

I'm going to keep it real here and just say one of my pinwheel blocks turned out so..."off"... I had to seam rip the whole side out. It was that red and black one up top. At this point I wasn't going to steal another charm pack from my store for myself to make a new pinwheel so had to improvise. I just sewed a jelly roll strip on and attached the strip with the lame pinwheel on the other side...you can hardly tell it's got problems now.
Ah well it doesn't even matter to me because Emma LOVES it. You wouldn't think of Sweetwater fabric to be a baby quilt color combo. It's not all bright colors and baby pink/blue.
I think that's why she likes it though. She kept grabbing at the black triangles so as soon as my yardage comes in August 7th I'm going to pick a good texty print for the back, quilt it, and give it to her to use.

If you haven't got some of this wonderful fabric yet, I've got some Road 15 in my Etsy Shop here with some great prices on mini fat eighth bundles. I'm also sending a Road 15 mini charm pack out with every order that contains something Road 15 in it while supplies last.
Ordering for yardage will be available Tuesday August 6th from my webstore. We will start cutting/shipping on Wed.
Thanks for visiting. I'll be back later this week with my finished Road 15 mini quilt...or some new project I took a detour on. :)
