Charming Triangles Quilt

The great thing about the holidays is that not only are there fewer commitments and no reason to rush, but I get so much done in the evening!  The late evening is my most productive time of the day. Once the house is quiet, the sewing machine and I swing into action and I push myself to remain focused.  


I am so pleased to have now finished the Charming Triangles Quilt, and delighted with how it has turned out.  The quilt has a really clean and classic feel about it.  Red and white is such a safe color combination ~ you really can't go wrong.
...

For the back of the quilt I have used Valori Wells' Paisley in Scarlet.  I love this print ~ and have stashed lots of it! ~ it makes for a really beautiful but simple quilt back and adds to the overall classic look of this quilt.


And predictably so, Kei Honeycomb in black with a white spot for binding,
which is in stark contrast to the rest of the quilt 
but frames it beautifully! 


Finished Quilt measures 48.5 inches x 64.5 inches
Center Feature fabric ~ Kaleidoscope Panel by Prints Charming


I have listed this quilt in my Etsy Store.  SOLD! 

The Charming Triangles Quilt listing can be found here.



Happy browsing!

    Beautiful finish! I so agree with you on the whole holiday and family thing. Typically when it is quiet in my home, I get much more accomplished.

    Absolutely stunning! I love the movement in this quilt. Did you design it yourself (probably, knowing how creative you are!)

    I've been in search of great orange prints at my local stores for over a year now. Unfortunately they don't seem to have a thing for bright orange. The quest continues...
