Magic Square Quilt (aka Summer Season Quilt) Tutorial by Jenny Doan

 How to Make a Summer Season Quilt - Jenny Doan

aka Magic Square or 4 Seasons 

I am prepping quilt kits to take to Quilt Camp in October.  



I purchased this garden-inspired layer cake in Madison.  I have a cream-colored neutral background to go with it.   I will add borders, but I don't think I'll bother with the scalloped edges.

 I like to do at least 1 as a test case or a model of what I need to do ...   You can see those half-quare triangles in the foreground.  I used the Magic 8 method, and it worked out very nicely!

Making half-square triangles seems like a good project for Quilt Camp. 

 

Here is the basic layout for this quilt.  Though there are so many possibilities with HSTs.
