Default Larry's Puzzle

I just finished this little quilt (65X65) this afternoon. I’m calling it Larry’s Puzzle because I turned over a problem I was having to my DBIL to puzzle out. I wanted to cut the strips for the striped fabric by sewing the orange, striped, orange strips together and the cut them at a 45% angle to get my chevrons. After wasting some of my fabric, I swallowed my pride and called my sister to enlist the help of my DBIL. He had my answer in a very short time and told me he just had to use pythagorean theorem to solve the problem. Now I don’t even know what that is, (I googled it and I still don’t know what it is), but I’m glad he knows because I was able make this quilt from start to finish in less than a week! Thank you, Larry! I hope you’ve let your brain rest up, because I have another idea for a quilt that I don’t have a pattern for…… J
