Apparently I've forgotten how to rotate my photos - this is a sideways version, but it's D-O-N-E. All those triangles went together easily. It's looking either "watery" or "snakey". I finished it with a Faux flange binding, hardly visible in this photo. Opinions for a name?
Below is a kids "I Spy" quilt that started as a Disappearing Nine Patch but it was so overly busy and uncoordinated-looking, that I took every piece apart, trimmed each piece to a more accurate size and finished it up like below. This was a good lesson to remember "Structure" in a quilt. This will go to a niece who is a Social Worker Extraordinaire, who always had babies coming and going in her home. She calls the quilts "mats", because her floors are frequently "crawling" with darling babies of various ages. Some return home, some are adopted or fostered, etc. The baby might take a quilt with them if possible.
Your quilt looks like lightening. Love the colors.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty good name!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your blue quilt. So striking! I'm thinking "A Month of Triangles" as it looks like four weeks worth of it. Just saying. Love the I Spy too. Sorry to hear the Disappearing 9 Patch gave you a hard time. ;^)
ReplyDeleteI love the triangles quilt! Lightning Bolt might be a good name.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great quilt!! Squiggles? The blues are just so pretty!
ReplyDeleteGreat finish, Elaine. My first thought when I saw the thumbnail of the quilt on my blog sidebar was Mountain Switchbacks, but all of the names suggested here apply. It also made me think of the twirly things the neighbor hangs from her trees that create spirals as they twist in the wind.
ReplyDeleteNice job on the I Spy quilt, too! A nice save on a quilt that wasn't behaving. ;)
wow - another great name! I like SWITCHBACKS.
