Stay at Home Round Robin (SAHRR) Round 2

 The second round prompt for the SAHRR is from Anja Quilt's and the prompt is Half Square Triangles.

The half square triangles was a perfect choice as I was hoping to take this quilt from being on point to squaring it up and so I added 4 corner triangles, one in each corner to now have a square top. I chose this pale green solid fabric, but I also knew I wanted to add more appliqué to keep the tea/teacup theme going as well. I used my Crafter's Edge Teapot, teacup and saucer die cuts and fused them onto the corners and then blanket stitched around them.

Here are the half square triangles sewn to each corner.

I added appliqué teapots and teacups and saucers to keep the tea theme going too. I might later quilt some tea going into the cup from the teapot spout.

I used batik fabric for the teapots and teacups and saucers and made 2 like this and two the opposite like in the photo below.

Two were made like this and 2 like the photos above. Blanket stitching was stitched around each appliqué piece.

I am joining in on the Stay at Home Round Robin 2025

I decided today after reading about the SAHRR, that I would dive in and see what happens. I first read about this round robin years ago from Brenda of Songbird Designs. If you want to know about this or join in click this link from Brenda's blog.

I chose to use one of the Cozy Afternoon quilt blocks I made back in 2015! I made the blocks, but they have sat since then, so it was time to do something with them, or at least one of them. I thought any of these blocks would be great to use for the center block. I hope to keep up and get inspired as what to do for each round. Plus, I am not always so great at the math part of figuring out what might fit in terms of sizes of blocks or units to sew so they fit around a block! I may need to shout out to someone with better match skills to help me later😜.

Here is the center block that I chose to use~
