Plan B Half Squared

A couple of months ago I pulled out my orphan bin ready to make another Plan B quilt. There were a ton of half square triangles in there so I started by pulling them all out.

Next I grouped them and sewed them together. It was a ton of fun. There are just so many possibilities when you are playing with hsts.

Then I added a few orphan blocks. My favorite is this 3D fish. I added a few strips here and there to make everything fit together. After sandwiching and basting I quilted with an all over stipple

Finally I added a fun, scrappy, blue and green binding to complete my Plan B Half Squared Quilt.

I’m thrilled all these orphans play so nicely together in their new home. Linking up with Sarah, Amanda Jean, and Cynthia to celebrate.
