Hello there ladies and gentlemen!
I was wondering if you could point me to some of your favorite charm pack friendly patterns. I have recently acquired several hundred 5in squares and I'm looking for some fun ways to use them. Thanks for your help! |
Try Anita's Arrowhead using 1 inch sticky note and following the rest of the instructions, cutting 1 inch strips. So easy and so cool ...

I bought 3 charm packs from MQS which is probably not enough to do anything with, but I just loved the fabric.
THEN I washed it, lol fetching all them squares from the washer was not pretty. I took my time to straighten each piece out before I put it in the dryer, still came out wrinkled. So I pressed them all. I had 165 pieces. I have decided I will not buy charm packs any more, but I like this thread for ideas of what to do. It seems I don't have enough charms for a big project ... and I am NOT charmed. ;) |

I did a pinwheel small lap quilt out of charm packs. I'm not the brightest star in math and didn't figure well enough on how many charm packs I needed. I used only two and really needed three. My mom, who is 4'9" 125 lbs, uses it as a lap quilt. But when she's gone, she's 97, I'll use it asa wall hanging, it's that small! :)

Gourmetquilter.com is a great U-tube site for charm square ideas.
