These blocks are a great way to use up triangle scraps, which always seem to multiply.
There's lots of ways to piece these blocks together, but I liked the wonky kites that formed in this layout.
I made a little strip panel for added interest, using mostly neutral solids and a small strip of each dominant color. That wasn't part of the original plan, but I love that section as much as the kites.
The quilting was so much fun, and came together quickly. I used my walking foot, and serpentined twice through each block, never touching the scrappy triangles. This sort of leaf pattern that resulted makes me happy, and I'll definitely use it again! I quilted the strip section with straight-ish lines from top to bottom.
The binding is from Ayumi's adorable Lighthearted line, and it was just the perfect orange for this quilt (with additionally awesome pops of yellow).
For the back, I used three bluesy fabrics, including the very fun Leah Duncan triangles, from her Tule line.
Up next, I'm going to share a little recap of my do.Good Stitches experience, with a mosaic of the quilts I contributed (and maybe one of the blocks I made for others, too).
it's so happy! I love the quilting, too xx
ReplyDeleteOh, I just finally saw this! I'll try to add it to our Love circle group. I was a bit preoccupied in April. Oops! Thanks for the finish, Jacey =)
ReplyDeleteLove this! Great choice with the quilting.
