Paperdrop quiltpatroon van Latifah Saafir Studios

The way the half rectangle triangles twist into those ribbon-like curves is so clever—the instructions made it easy to keep everything aligned. I finished the top in just a weekend and can't wait to quilt it.

I was a bit intimidated by Half Rectangle Triangles at first, but the way this pattern walks you through creating those flowing origami folds is incredibly clear. The HuRTy technique really does make the blocks come together like a dream.

I’ve made three quilts with this pattern already and the way the ribbons cascade off the half rectangle triangles still makes me smile. The instructions are so clear that even my second attempt came out looking like I’d been doing this for years.
