More Triangles

I have on my sewing block more equilateral triangles after stumbling across  this blog post (in Russian) and I thought wow this looks so cool I wonder how difficult it is and to my surprise not very. She's got great pictures which give you the gist of the block and when translated even better explanation on how to cut your triangles.
Here's how mine turned out from 2½" strips (we all have some of those right?)

 Here's a rough estimation of how the sizing turned out. This is my 12½" sq ruler and it pretty much fits that top to bottom but side to side it is about 2½" bigger tip to tip.

I liked how this turned out so much with these test scraps that I decided to try a bigger one this time I used fat quarters. I picked 6 different fabrics 3 purples and 3 teal/green. I ended up with quite a bit of left over material from the 4 inner fabrics but not much from the 2 outer fabrics. This could easily be a scrappy project just depending on how large you wanted to make it.

I cut 4½" wide strips out of my fat quarters I wanted to get the most I could out of each one remembering I am limited by the outer 2 colors.

This ended up measuring 27" from top to bottom and 31" tip to tip. Quite a bit bigger by just adding 2" to the size of my strips. This makes a great table topper size and even perhaps a small tree skirt. hmm.

If anyone it interested in a more detailed write up of how I put this together let me know in the comments. Otherwise happy sewing.
