It’s the third week of the Triangle Quilt Along over at The Sassy Quilter.
This week’s goal is to sew all of the triangles into rows, and I am happy to report that I am once again right on schedule. I sewed together 14 rows of 19 triangles… well mostly. I can’t sew a few of my rows into entire rows because my large triangles are 2 rows tall. They will get added when I sew those double rows together.
As I’ve pieced these triangles together, I keep feeling like this is the perfect palette for this time of year. The snows seem to finally be over, but now there are days and days of dreary rain, with a few bright spots or color as the first of the flowers begin to appear. Maybe I’m more affected by my surroundings when I design than I thought. What do you think?
Have you joined in the #TriangleQAL? How is your project going?
LOVE how this is turning out and the large triangles – brilliant! Those pops of pink are awesome!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate you stopping by and leaving a comment.
Love the large triangles. Can’t wait to see the completed top!
You are doing great, Andrea! Can’t wait to see how this turns out. Those large fussy cut triangles are brilliant!
Thanks Lorna! I’ve enjoyed watching your quilt progress too!
Cool idea to have the large triangles in there. Love the little pop of pink too!
Thanks so much Vicki! I’m really glad I decided to add in the pink. I think it helps a lot.
I start to sew this weekend!! :O I too love the larger fussy cut triangles…unique and fun!
Thanks so much Valerie!
I really like what you’re up to! The double height triangles? Really cool!
Thanks so much Nesta!
Looking good! I think how we are feeling or seeing things probably does show more than we think. Now I’m going to look closer at my projects and see! We are moving along so quick. Almost done:)
Yes, it’s going a lot faster than I thought it would, but I’m still managing to keep up. It has me pretty excited.
I’m a novice – how did you figure out the cutting size for the larger triangles?
The cutting size in 4 of the smaller triangles pieced together. Or if it makes more sense to you, take three sewn together in a row, the longest side of that row is the length of the sides of the larger triangle. I’ve had several people ask, so I’m thinking I’ll do a tutorial.
Thank you. A tutorial would be great – I’m glad I wasn’t the only one to ask the question!
