The Opposing Triangles came together beyond my dreams.
The bases certainly do not collide perfectly, but I gotta say they are impressively close!
I learned some things along the way that I would change next time.
I’d waste just a bit more fabric to sash the triangles next time. Then cut the sashing down so it surrounds the triangles evenly.
Next time I think I’ll scrappy strip piece the sashing on the triangles and make the triangles white. The options are endless really.
For now I think I’ll put this aside to contemplate what it might need to finish off the design, but I think Cheryl’s right, straight down the middle for a twin bed.
I seem to be on a purple/green kick this summer, partly fueled by my kitchen window box I think.
I’m still pulling out Anything Goes Quilt here and there with no success, Opposing Triangles and it can snuggle up for a bit.
And then there was the purple and green colorway for Ara Jane’s baby quilt from the guild.
I’m moving on from purple and green and triangles to a scrappy and easy charm square quilt.
My brain needs a break.
Purple and greens are favorites! love all your purple/grn projects… Those flowers are really gorgeous and oh yes, so inspirational…smile!
So, so pretty! I’ve been working with purples and yellows this week and I’m loving it!
I have always wanted to go mustard and purple.
I ordered the zigzag pattern boards yesterday. Just fyi ~
awesome.
I think it’s great just the way it is! 🙂
it looks amazing from over here. congrats!
all beautiful! Love your triangles!
Beautiful pictures, from fabric to flowers. Gorgeous!
Your triangles are amazing! 🙂
This is totally striking and wonderful!
Whoops, I also meant to say that I actually like the white part the way it is (is that what you meant when you were talking about the sashing?). I think it’s cool how it tapers and thought that was a deliberate design choice. 😀
I do want the white sashing to taper, just more evenly next time. I like it that way too! xo
The opposing triangles are great!
Love, love, love it! You know what’s funny. It isn’t until just now that I even noticed the turquoise in both this top and the baby patchwork. Yet it makes it so much better!
gives it a little pop!
Can’t wait to see what you end up with, so far it’s stunning. Love those colors!!
I am soooo soooo soooo impressed. You are the goddess of piecing! LOL.
Awesome.
I said this on flickr already, but I love your opposing triangles design, Katie!! It’s so striking!
What a beautiful quilt: the opposing triangles. I like it VERY MUCH!
The colours are beautiful and the design is very striking: love it.
The next quilt: it just goes to show that ‘anything goes’ is not always true …
The last one: green and purple: my favourite combinations.
Absoloutely gorgeous!!
Well, maybe I was just talking about Ingrid!
I love how it turned out and agree right down the middle of a twin bed will look amazing! Have fun with your new quilt.
Wow, wow, wow! Absolutely gorgeous, impressive work!
wow, I keep coming back to look at this one – it’s amazing!!
Thanks. I love it and figured out the kinks for next time. Although with book edit and new job quilting is sadly pushed to the side. Do some extra cuddles with that little one…now I’m missing it!
