Love of Chocolate Mystery
All Done!
If chocolate makes your heart sing, this 54" x 54" quilt might
just be for you! If you prefer, you can make it scrappy by using a
variety of fabrics - after all, doesn’t a box of chocolate have
lots of different kinds in it? This Mystery was inspired by
the
Hot for Chocolate
fabric. You don't *have* to make it in pinks and browns,
however! Choose your own favorite colors.
Did you miss the mystery? You can still order the pattern! 
Available by instant download for only $3.95.

you like to follow along using our exact fabrics? You can
order a kit, which will include the pattern, all the fabric you need, a Tri-Recs
ruler and a half package of both sizes of Thangles for only $47.50

This quilt uses the
Tri-Recs
ruler for the diamond points and
Thangles for the
Half Square Triangles (HSTs). If you prefer another method for
making HSTs, change the cutting directions to accommodate that
method. You will also find a 3 ½" ruler very useful. The
Quilt in
a Day fussy cut rulers will work really well.

There is a teeny tiny bit of applique in the quilt. If you
prefer fusible applique, you will need a small amount of
Steam-a-seam
or other fusible. If you aren't sure, read our
article
on Applique Tips and Tricks.
A 1/4" seam allowance is assumed.
WOF means Width of Fabric.
