Sunshine Half-Square Triangles

I've had this fabric sitting around for ages. I made a quilt for a workmate several years ago when he and his wife had their little girl. That little girl is now at least eight years old. Time flies. 

I decided to make a bunch of half-square triangle blocks using the 5" charms. This idea came from a talk by Blair Stocker of Wise Craft Handmade during the Baltimore Modern Quilt Guild virtual meeting in November. 

I worked on the units during my last quilt as a leader & ender. The units then spent a bunch of time on the design wall until Sunday when I sewed them into rows and columns.

Then I added a border to square it up and give those edges some stability. The finished size will be 40" by 40", a perfect size for a little tummy-time. I think it turned out quite well.
