Welcome to KT's first ever Blog Blowout!
Stop by our blog site monthly - or more often if the mood strikes - for once-in-a-blue-moon blowout specials on KT books, patterns & more! To celebrate the end of a long, hot summer, our Red Hots pattern is the perfect choice. My layered patchwork technique makes a traditional quilt block fast & easy in any color combo you choose.
We simply layer a small red triangle on each large tan triangle, and a small tan triangle on each large red triangle, then stitch 1/8" away from the bias edge. Sew a red and tan layered triangle together to create a basic half square triangle unit, then piece 4 units together to create the pinwheel block. Easy peasy!
Go to Red Hots to purchase this pattern for only $1.85 plus $3.15 shipping for a total of $5.00! Today thru Monday, September 2 at 10pm. Comment here by Wednesday, Sept. 4th to win a scrap bag of KT reds & tans to get you started.
Don't forget Moda's Designer Blog Hop Sept. 4 thru 16! Check out KTQ on Sept. 14th for a look at the new Sweet Pea collection coming to your favorite quilt shop soon.

Love the red and tan so much better than red and white and more my style.
ReplyDeleteSimply stunning! Not as stark as red and white - I like the red and tan a lot better.
ReplyDeleteI love red and tan together! I wish I could see this technique up close. I'm assuming it leaves a raw edge on the one side? I'd love to try it!

Love the red an tan combo and would also love that scrap bag!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful. My Mother's favorite colour was red and as I get older, find myself using red more and more. In this case, the old saying "like mother, like daughter" is so true.
ReplyDeleteTan and red - a great combination! Would love to have some of yours to start this quilt design.
ReplyDeleteMarcia
My favorite color is red and I would love to win the red and tan fabrics. I'm not sure I completely understand your photos, is there a raw edge?

Love that quilt! Since I've made a Loose Change pattern, I love the raw edge in quilts and this one is no exception! I'd love to win the fabric scraps! Thanks for the chance.

KT scraps would just be icing on my cake! Following a downsizing move I'm ready to set up the sewing lab with red/tan KTs.
