If you’ve ever wondered what to do with a fabric charm pack, take a leaf out of Corinne Bradd’s stitchy book and make a lovely quilt. Her half square triangle (HST) diamond block is easy to sew, but looks so impressive when pieced together. Make HSTs less of a chore to create by setting up a mini production line in front of the TV – you’ll be done in no time!
1 Set aside a 1m x 1.4m rectangle of white cotton for the quilt backing and set aside. Trim all 24 of the 10” squares into four 12.5cm squares. Snip 96 12.5cm squares from white cotton and use chalk to draw a diagonal line from corner to corner on the wrong side of each one.
2 Pair up each patterned square with a white one and pin right sides together. Stitch 5mm away on each side of the marking. Cut along the line, open out and press to make HSTs.
