Rock Candy Table Topper

The 3rd new pattern that features the Sidekick Ruler is Rock Candy.

The Rock Candy Table Topper features two shapes, diamonds and triangles. It is a fast & fun project with no Y seams!

I filmed a couple of videos on Rock Candy as a part of the Journey 2 Nebula. You can sign up for the Journey self paced as well as watch the videos on YouTube.

The pattern uses my new Sidekick Ruler. It also includes the option of full size templates just like my other patterns.

Rock Candy is made from a Charm Pack. I used the Sunset Kona Solids charm pack by Robert Kaufman.

I also decided to make a Rock Candy from print fabrics. This fabric is Collage by Carrie of Such Designs.

I just finished binding it yesterday. Check out my tutorial on how to bind quilts with 120-degree angles to finish this table topper.

-- Cover photo shoot outtakes!

I photographed the Table Toppers on my sewing table for the pattern cover.

I couldn't use my dining room table because the black blended in with dark wood.

A few days ago I started making another Rock Candy table topper. I used the same Sunset Kona Solids charm pack by Robert Kaufman & used white as my background fabric.

I love how different the white & black Rock Candy table toppers look even though they have the same feature fabrics!

This pattern & all of the new patterns are available now!

UPDATE 3/2/15: If you need some assistance aligning the diamond pieces to assemble your Rock Candy table topper, check out my tutorial on how to do that here.
