Happy dancing

I finally got around to quilting a top that I made a year or so ago -- a black and red Irish chain throw.



I also recently completed a quilt that has been in my head for a long time -- a Storm at Sea throw. I wish it were big enough to use on my bed, but I really couldn't see myself making three times as many blocks. All of the blue and some of the white came from my stash. I used the white-on-white scraps that I had, but had to buy more to finish it. The biggest challenge was figuring out a relatively easy way to cut the diamonds and keep them pretty much on grain. I used the large Tri-Recs triangle to get the angle right.

They are both beautiful, Julia. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing, Julia. I love your Storm at Sea! Makes me want to do one!

They're both so nice, Julia! And congratulations on finishing something that had been hanging around that long -- sometimes those are the hardest to get back to.

I didn't see the original post (I don't think?); glad to see it here, though. The Storm at Sea is beautiful. I have a miniature SaS drawn out, ready to do - and all the fabric thought about! . In message , Donna in NE La. writes
