Quilt Square

Quilts and Coverlets for my Guestroom
The day I decided to redo my guestroom turned out to be extremely challenging. I remember, as a child, my grandmother sitting in her big easy chair, her needle in hand, and her quilting squares, all around the floor at her feet. One by one, she would take each of those small squares and sew them together by hand. Gone are those days of such tedious work. Although, some women do have quilting parties, even in this modern day, spending hours and days putting together these beautiful personal masterpieces, I found that with my busy schedule, time just did not allow that luxury for me.
I wanted my guestroom to display an old fashioned feel and take my guests back to those nostalgic days once they entered the room. I searched online first and found many sites regarding quilts and coverlets and ideas on redecorating this room. I found many style's, sizes, and colors, but I really was taken with the roses design in pinks and reds to get that old fashioned feeling. I wanted a quilt that reflected my personal touch and looked like I had just sewn and pieced it together yesterday.
The quilt I chose has tiny red rose buds in each square, along with larger pink petals of roses and tiny green leaves strewn throughout. I chose a soft pink, 100% cotton coverlet to go under the quilt which fit quite nicely. The coverlets come in all sizes, colors and costs, so when you are searching, you will easily be able to make a decision once you pick out the quilt you like. I liked these coverlets so much that I chose a couple of different colors so that I could change them up when I desired to make the bed look a little different from that last time my guests visited.
Once the quilts and coverlets arrived I was so excited to get started on this redecorating project. I started by painting the room all a bright white to go with the white armoire, white dresser, and makeup table I had purchased earlier. I then hung my soft white and frilly Pricilla curtains on the two large cottage style windows. Much to my delight, going through the many boxes in my garage that had once belonged to my Grandmother I had found a large beautiful woven throw rug that has large red roses galore. Somehow my Grandmother seemed to know that I would be the grandchild to put this to use someday. Thanks Grandma!
The quilt is more beautiful than I could imagine and so fitting to that nostalgic feeling, taking me back in time to the ‘good ole days'. I think I even shed a few tears. The quilts came with shams in the same rose pattern and they fit perfectly on the king size down pillows I had purchased. The skirting is a soft pink to match the pink rose petals of the quilt. I did end up purchasing an alternate skirting in a light green color to match the leaves, just in case I wanted to change the bedding up later with a different look.
I couldn't be happier now that I look at my accomplishment redecorating this guest room with the new quilt and coverlets. I find myself sitting in the room now to apply my makeup each morning and enjoying the solitude and nostalgia the room gives me. Move over guests!

Quilt with Half Square Triangles?
I am making a beginner baby quilt from a kit that I purchased. It is a simple pattern, consisting of big pieces. There are really just six finished blocks for the whole quilt. Four 6 1/4" pieces are sewn together to make a four-patch block. Then, 9" blocks are cut diagonally to create a two half square triangles. These triangles are sewn on each side to create the finished block.
The trouble I am having is that after I sew on the first two half square triangles and press, when I sew on the other two, instead of getting what looks like four complete triangles, the second two triangles cut off the edges. Is this something that happened because of a problem with measuring? Maybe with the placement of the fabric?
I was totally confused, but have figured it out!
It would appear the 6 1/4" cut measurement is a misprint and not your error.
Traditionally, 1/2" is added to the finished measurement. Example: if a block is to finish 6" you would measure and cut the block at 6 1/2" to allow for the traditional 1/4" seams when piecing quilt tops.
This may well be the reason the triangle does not fit as it should have a 1/4" extension on each corner of the edge that is sewn to the side of the 4 patch block.
However, if you cut the blocks at 6 1/4' and use the traditional seam allowance of 1/4", the finished 4 patch block will measure 12" x 12".
In comparison, a 6 1/2" cut block would result in the 4 patch block measuring 12 1/2" x 12 1/2".
The 9" block cut diagonally and gives a bias cut of 13".
Center the cut edge to the 12" 4 patch block and you have 1/2" over lap on each end, which is too much.
Trim the triangle 1/4" on each side from base to tip and this will leave the required 1/4" on each end of the base when sewn to the 4 patch block.
Use cotton thread to help eliminate stretching.
I would like to see the pattern for this kit or a picture of the kit.
