“Mama, what’s for snack?” I pause my fabric cutting, check the time (3:00pm), and suggest the oranges sitting on the kitchen counter. There’s profound joy in fulfilling my children’s needs, but there were moments – back when both my kids were under eight years of age – when I felt like I was nothing but a 24/7 food dispenser. Before quilting, this feeling reared its ugly head almost everyday. I was a stay-at-home parent, and didn’t recognize it at that time, but I was struggling from a loss of identity, motivation, and purpose. The thing is, I enjoyed working in general. It gave me measurable goals and it satisfied my career-oriented aspirations. However, due to employer-based healthcare coverage in the US, it was difficult to go back to the workforce…

There is a simple pleasure in snuggling up on a cosy sofa with a soft, warm quilt wrapped around you on a blistering winter’s day, with a hot chocolate in hand. But despite all of the most experimental and out-there fashion trends that have passed through the modern world, there’s yet to be a wave where wearing your blanket outside of the house – no matter how comfortable it may be – is considered cool.

An equilateral triangle is a triangle which has three sides of equal length. This is a common shape used in patchwork and super easy to piece, so once you get the hang of it you won’t look back! There are lots of templates available to aid with the cutting – these are commonly referred to as 60-degree triangle rulers. In case you don’t own a 60-degree ruler yet, we’ve provided a template you can download and print out on p74! HOW TO SEW EQUILATERAL TRIANGLES CUTTING TRIANGLES WITH A TEMPLATE Triangles are simple to cut using an acrylic template with markings.
