Super-sized Unicorn Half-square Triangle Quilt

Happy Tuesday! It's time to share a newly finished quilt!


I finished this quilt the day before we left for our holiday traveling back in December. I was determined to get it bound so that I could take photos of it on our trip! It was also my last finish of 2018, so that's fun too!

This quilt top has been waiting to be finished up for a while! I have a pattern for this quilt that can be found here: Expanse Quilt Pattern


For the background of this quilt I used a beautiful teal shot cotton. I know it's a Kaffe Fassett shot cotton*, but I'm not sure exactly which color (I bought it almost 4 years ago)! The rest of the prints are quilting cottons from my stash.


I used Quilter's Dream Orient Batting* to make this quilt extra lightweight. To give this quilt even more lightness I backed it in the firefly voile print from my Curiosities* collection. It's so silky smooth! The combination of shot cotton, batting and voile makes it super summery.


For quilting I sent this quilt to Melissa Kelley of Sew Shabby Quilting. I chose the Tickle design, which is a nice mix of feathers and swirls. The thread is actually a light orange which really makes the quilting pop!


For the binding I used this funky sparrow print from Honor Roll* by Anna Maria Horner.


It feels good to finally finish up this quilt. I only have two quilt tops left now, and one is already basted and ready to be quilted! I am so determined to get them all finished up this year!
