Skipping Stones Quilt ~ A Quilty Box Project

I started a new project!

Disclaimer:  The products used in this post were given to me by Quilty Box.
Ragamuffin is SEW excited!

I'm making the Skipping Stones quilt from the November 2020 Bundles of Inspiration magazine in Quilty Box.

This quilt design is by Natalie Barnes.  I'm using her Norma Rose fabrics that were also included in Quilty Box (top fabric in photo), plus a bunch of random neutral fabrics from my stash (bottom fabric in photo).

I was able to use my Accuquilt 8" Qube to cut out some of the pieces.  This made the cutting part of the quilt go super fast.  

There are two sizes of HST's (half square triangles) in this quilt.  I used Jackie Kunkel's 4-1/2" Square from another Quilty Box to square up my blocks.  It worked really well.

Just one afternoon of sewing and I had everything cut out.

All of the half square triangles have been sewn and trimmed.

Sew cute small HS triangles before trimming.

My design wall with large and small HST units.


 I even had time to begin sewing some of my HST's into blocks.  Woo-Hoo!  This quilt is moving right along.  I can't wait to finish sewing the blocks in my next step.

What's Inside the November 2020 Quilty Box?

What's inside the November 2020 Quilty Box?  Take a peek with me:

So much quilty goodness!

This is the Norma Rose Fabric Bundle from Windham Fabrics.

Fat eighths in a variety of colors and patterns.  Fun, fun, fun!

Bundles of Inspiration magazine.  This month's issue includes an interview with Natalie Barnes, three quilt patterns, and the Subscriber Spotlight.

This Norma Rose Postcard has a recipe for Waldorf Salad on the flip side.

This is an interesting new take on the seam ripper.  This one suctions to your table top so you can keep both hands on your fabric.  I'll have to try it out.

A spool of Aurifil thread in pretty variegated brown and white.  Lovely!  I can't wait to go and sew.
