Split Personality

Two Fabrics, One Fun Quilt!

Ever look at a quilt and find yourself trying to figure out where one block ends and the next begins? Split Personality might have you doing a little of that!

This two-color quilt pairs light and dark fabrics to create diagonal lines with a repeating design tucked inside. There’s plenty to look at, but we’re building it with half-square triangles, strip piecing, and squares. The fun is watching those familiar pieces turn into something you might not expect.

In the video, I’ll walk you through making eight half-square triangles at a time, putting together the strip sets, and arranging everything so the design comes together. Grab two fabrics with a clear light-and-dark contrast, and let’s see what yours will look like!

The finished quilt measures approximately 54" × 72". For the quilt top, you’ll need 2½ yards of light fabric and 2½ yards of dark fabric.
