Charity quilt #2 and #3 for 2026 - brown and blue

I wanted to keep using brown fabric, but in this quilt, I worked in blue shades.  It was pretty easy to make the square in a square quilt, but I remember that I liked the chevron look of the half square triangles.  I pulled out a stack of fabrics, cut 9" squares and sewed them together to make half-square triangles.  I gave away all of the smaller scraps to a quilting friend who also makes quilts for charity.

Here is the completed top.  It's 56" x 64".


I made a second one that was 56" x 56" from blue and light gray material (which, I forgot to take a picture of!).

I hope someone will like them!
