After I did a little 'nother-quilt-done jig and had a glass of wine to celebrate my clean workspace this weekend, I dug into my WIP/UFO corner and came up with this, which has kicked around my condo since I made it almost a year ago. I was all psyched about it when I started, then my friends started having little boy babies and all my girly quilts got put on hold.
Made from a Moda layer cake (Modern Workshop, Oliver + S) and a few Kona solids, these triangles are about three-quarters of an inch shy of equilateral (don't ask how I got to those dimensions, I couldn't tell you), so I'm calling it "Isoceles." Definitely a lesson in working with bias edges and trying to get long wonky rows of triangles straight again.
There were enough leftovers from the layer cake to make another top, which you may or may not remember. That one actually got quilted, though I think I was waiting until both of them were done to take a picture. It's been so long, I can't remember.
It's been wonderful working in the cooler Fall temps, but it also means someone is back to napping in the middle of my projects. Quilting may take longer than I thought.
