November 2020, Twin Size, "Two Triangles"

This is a pattern I'm so glad I found, I love putting random fabrics together, though this pattern would also work well with coordinated fabrics in a pattern.  I put closeups of some of the fabric pieces to show off some of the really fun materials.  I used mostly blues but there is also lavender, light green and yellow to add interest.  Each block is made with two triangles joined by a strip of white - thus "Two Triangles.  This quilt is for my little grandson who is getting bigger.

 

October 2020, Full Size "String quilt"

I've made several quilts using the strips.,  It takes awhile to accumulate enough strips of fabric left from other projects.  Sometimes I try to match colors a bit, making a quilt for a boy with blues or a girl with mostly pinkish strips.   This one is just random.,  The back I put together with squares of plaid.  I've decided I like to make the back with even squares, usually 11 inches instead of putting  pieces together like a jigsaw puzzle. Looking back, I saw another string quilt made from the same batch of strips - this is definitely a different one.   I showed this to Jill and she showed me her quilt I sent a while ago.  They've been using it to wrap up in on a cold winter night, for watching TV.  It's getting a little ragged.  So this one is for the Baldassanos.
