All or Nothing “Keisha” Quilt
Featuring: Studio E Fabrics All or Nothing by Chelsea DesignWorks
Pattern Design by: Shankari Paradee
Sewn by: Shankari Paradee
A friend of mine passed away recently from ovarian cancer. This quilt is a similar variation of the quilt that was given to our friend Keisha.
This pattern is a nice and simple make and it comes together so quickly. It's great for beginners and will teach you about sewing half square triangles and sewing on the bias. You'll love how it turns out with a 3-D effect!
Technique: Sewing on the bias, making big HSTs (half square triangles)
Skill Level: confident beginner

Instructions:
1. For each of your squares: Fold in half, corner to corner, and cut down the middle to create two triangles from each square.
2. Layout your quilt as in the diagram or you can arrange the fabric however you like to create the 3-D effect. (Diagram 2)
3. Sew each half square triangle together to create a half square triangle block. You will create 16 blocks.
4. Then, sew the Half-Square Triangles (HSTs) together to create your quilt top.
5. Quilt and Bind as desired.
TIP: I used the leftover fabrics to create my 3.25" strips of binding!
