Project Quilting 9.2 - Triangulation!

I was excited to find out what the next challenge would be for Project Quilting, and kept checking for the post at Persimmon Dreams last Sunday until it was finally up!

Triangles!  Looking around the house for color and design inspiration, I landed on a favorite mug and then pulled some scraps from my solids drawer.


I'd been wanting to do something with improv triangles, perfect for this challenge!


Concentric triangles, made log cabin style, with pieces added to each side (and strategically trimmed!), make my completed Triangular mini.  It measures 9.5 x 12.5.


I enjoy playing with the quilting design when making a small piece, so my challenge for myself was to do some triangular quilting with my walking foot.


This was fun!


This makes a fun little placemat for my favorite mug, and might work for breakfast, too!

    Super cute Diann! Walking foot is perfect for small pieces, as it is easy to handle them and create beautiful quilting.
