TASTER: Block 1 of Rosebud Fayre

Block 1 of Rosebud Fayre Medallion Quilt
In this video Jennie and Valerie discuss the fabrics they have chosen, talk about half square and quarter square triangles, and the way the grain of the fabric works with you and against you.
They construct the centre medallion from four half square triangle units and tell why they have opted to do this rather than use a large single square piece of fabric.
There is also a separate, more in-depth video on how to make fast and accurate half-square triangle units.
