Disappearing Triangles

I got this pattern at "The Quilt Merchant " in Illinois. It is a copy of an antique quilt she owns and displays at her shop.

What a wonderful quilt. I love when people bring antique patterns back to life. The cheddary background is timeless in this beautiful creation.
peace

Great quilt!

Love this! What a great exercise in sorting color and value and a fantastic use of scraps. I too think the cheddar background really gives this quilt an unexpected pow factor.

excellent quilt, sweet inspector.

Great looking! Love cheddar as a wow background!

Pam S 05-05-2017 05:43 AM

Love the cheddar background. What a great way to use up some of those scraps.

sval 05-05-2017 05:49 AM

Being someone with pet allergies I am astonished by the cat sitting on the quilt.
If you roll that top with a lint roller you too will be amazed at the amount of your quilt inspector that is left "behind"
And that's just the hair you can see.

Lovely....

Rebecca_S 05-05-2017 01:32 PM

You may have inspired my next scrap quilt, this is so striking!

cashs_mom 05-05-2017 01:54 PM

I, too, love seeing older quilt patterns brought back. Your cat is adorable. He looks like he's laughing!

luvstoquilt 05-05-2017 02:04 PM

My cat is laughing. I beg him to move over so I can take a picture. That was his reply! This didn't even make a dent in my scraps but that is fine because I would rather play with scraps that cut my hoarded yardage! I so love to quilt!

lynnie 05-05-2017 02:28 PM

beautiful. love the color. i'm so glad you decided to give the quilt to your cat. He deserves it!

Sync 05-05-2017 04:16 PM

Wonderful quilt and it seems your quilt inspector approves too.

Jingle 05-05-2017 06:19 PM

A gorgeous quilt.

Painiacs 05-05-2017 09:55 PM

Wow!! That's a lot of scrsps! Looks awesome

twinkie 05-06-2017 02:09 AM

Turned out very nice.

quilterpurpledog 05-06-2017 02:36 AM

I really like your cheddar background. It was such an important color for antique quilts and I am so glad to see it come back into quilting fashion. You have combined it so beautifully with the contemporary pattern. So pretty.

sprice 05-06-2017 04:36 AM

Oh, so pretty! I like a color for the background--just don't like quilts that are too white!

carolynjo 05-06-2017 05:56 AM

I think that is a type of "1,000 pyramids", designed to use even the smallest of scraps. I have found even pieced triangles(tiny as they were) on antique quilts.

annette1952 05-06-2017 07:14 AM

Beautiful quilt!

I only have one cat, Mr. Peach. He is sure he owns this home and all that is in it. Yes, he leave hair all around and I sweep everyday because of him. I am not allergic and always let everyone know I am owned by cat that lives inside. A lot of quilters have pets and I am so sorry you can't be one of those.

Wow, that's a lot of little bitty triangles. Well done, it's an amazing quilt!

JanieH 05-06-2017 11:46 AM

Your quilt is wonderful and I echo everyone who loved your choice of background color.

Could you give us the name of the pattern and the shop, please? Thank you

Oops, just went back and read what you wrote about the quilt and there is the name of the shop. I will do a search for the pattern.

joyce888 05-06-2017 01:34 PM

Wow that's a lot of triangles! Great job

barny 05-06-2017 01:45 PM

I love it. It is so much an antique also. Very pretty.
