I wish I had a better place to photograph the whole quilt but this was the best spot with natural light.
Sorry my photos only show sections I haven't figured out a way to hang and photograph my whole quilt.
Any ideas?
These next two were taken on my worktable under my daylight lamps.
But wait there's more... I made a little quilt to match, which is just 40" x 40"
Still to be completed I have a single pinwheel 20" which I was going to make into a matching pillow. When I've completed this I will add the photo.
So I don't know what to call this quilt and I'm not even sure the correct name for the pattern but what I have come across in my searches is delectable mountains. I know I first saw this quilt or one like it on the cover of a magazine years ago and knew I had to make one myself. I figured at the time that I could easily figure this pattern out and for the most part yes, after all it's just some triangles of varying sizes put together. I should have purchased the magazine at the time because I have never been able to track it down since and I'm sure their instructions would have saved me a lot of time and errors. As simple as triangles can be at the time I didn't realize how much stretching and distortion can happen with all those bias edges. Over all I love this quilt flaws and all because when you admire the bigger picture they don't seem to matter much. And at the end of the day when a loved one snuggles under their brand new quilt, happy and content with their handmade treasure that's all that really matters.
Thanks for reading♥
