More on the Hurty Ruler

Debbie Jeske of A Quilter’s Table blog did a recent post on Latifah Saafir’s Hurty Ruler. I loved what she did–she used a scrappy version in her half-rectangles, but in places she kept the triangles plain, so the eye can follow the underlying structure of her piece.

Diamond CutBy noreply@blogger.com (Debbie) on Oct 29, 2024 08:20 am The HuRTy ruler by Latifah Saafir @latifahsaafirstudios had been in my studio for two full years, and last week I finally pulled some scraps from the bin and gave it a try. Let’s just say I was duly impressed! Never had I made HRTs so effortlessly. So I decided to try my hand at a small quilt of HRTs, and chose a tetrad (four-color) palette made up initially of Kona Rich Red, Heliotrope, Orchid Ice, Key Lime, and an unidentified green similar to Kelly.

Here’s the little quilt she made–isn’t it delightful?

I couldn’t get a link to Debbie’s blog to work, but you can just google it.

She shows her backing and discusses how she quilted it.

Enjoy!
