Happy Camper: First quilt top assembled!

Dec 24, 2003 4 Replies

Just finished assembling the blocks for my very first quilt top! It will have borders, but I probably won't be able to get to them until New Year's. Seemed like it was taking forever, and then, all of a sudden, it was done! The original inspiration was in Quick Colorful Quilts, but that one was done in bright solids, with different size and proportions, and no sashing or cornerstones... Fun to see how the changes add up...



It's "Triangles" in my Sewing/Quilting folder.

I looked at all of your pictures and I sure like your eye for color. The quilt top is gorgeous. It's different and colorful, and what a great way to put together triangles and colors. Thanks for sharing those!

Thank you!

I think the quilt top would have taken a whole lot less time had I just appliqued the triangles... In the original it made more sense to piece them because the pieces in each block were shades of a color. Live and learn...
