I seem to like triangles – a lot! There are so many different ways to use them and they’re easy to play with. I was experimenting with a lighter color palette in this quilt. My key color was aqua because it looks so fresh and I have never made a quilt with aqua as the focus color.
I like how the hollow triangles look but I also like how the striped triangles turned out as well. I had a ball mixing everything up and putting them on my design wall!
I had to do something different in the bottom part of the border because I ran out of my crazy mish-mash blocks. It’s a bit weird but oh well 🙂
These triangles are great fun. I like seeing the aqua in your quilt. A great contrast with the border. And I really like your solution to filling the last space in the border. If you hadn’t told us, I would have thought it was the plan all along.
Hi Karen! Thanks 🙂 The aqua color totally tickled my fancy. A different color palette for me though 🙂
I am in love with triangles right now. I think the “crazy corner” looks like an asymmetrical design element. I would not have guess that you ran out of blocks.
Hi Diana! What happened to your website? Are you changing something? I miss your stuff 🙂
LOVE triangles. Warning, they are addicting!! LOL I am working on my second triangle quilt in a month. . . I agree – who knew they were SO versatile? 🙂 Love yours and I agree – never would have thought a thing about the corner on the border, I think it looks fabulous!
Thank you 🙂 I am going to pop over to your site now and check out your latest project 🙂
Love your triangles! This top is so much fun!
Hi Ramona 🙂 Thank you! I love making triangle quilts and got a kick out of trying a new color scheme.
What a great way to finish off the border when you run out of your planned border. Such a creative quilt!
Thank you 🙂
This is such a fun quilt. Sometimes finding creative fixes to problems results in the best quilts. It definitely did here.
Hi Kymberly 🙂 thank you. I wasn’t too sure how my fix was going to look at the end. Have a great weekend.
Your quilt is fabulous!!! Love the colors.
Hi Karen – thank you 🙂
I think the bottom corner looks perfect. If you hadn’t said you ran out of your ‘crazy mish-mash’, I would have thought it was a very clever and deliberate design feature.
I love the colour choices in this. They are so wonderfully cheerful.
Thank you!! 🙂
