My mom visited this past weekend. We went on a nature walk ...
... and we carried on our little tradition of each piecing a quilt top when she visits. We each started a half square triangle quilt inspired by one we saw in a shop at the International Quilt Festival last November. Each quilt is made from two charm packs and some grey solid yardage. The trimming of all of the HSTs took FOREVER.
But we eventually finished and laid out my quilt ...
... and my mom's.
I think they both look better in person than in the photos. We ran out of time to sew the tops together, but I'm so excited about my quilt! I admired the Half Moon Modern fabric for a long time online before I snatched up my two charm packs at the quilt festival, and I've been anticipating making the quilt ever since. I got the first five (of fifteen) rows sewn together, and it looks great!
