Long time coming
 

Years ago I thought I would finally have the time to do some quilting but life continued to get in the way. I had bought some great material and apparently saw a quilt I wanted to do because I cut it all up into triangles. Gave them to my daughter, she never did anything with them, she came to live with me and brought the triangles. So, this is what I finally made with some of them... I have lots more. :-( It took me a few months to figure out how to place them. I wish I had known back then the easy way of working with triangles. This was a *itch. :-) It's also tied - can't seem to get myself to try machine quilting. This is my 12th quilt in 2 years. It's actually equal although the picture shows the bottom a bit smaller.

Beautiful. Love the arrangement you chose too

I second this. Really neat!!!!!

Oh yeah, me too! I love the pattern/arrangement! Nice work!

you did a great job. I believe the only reason it looks more narrow at the bottom is because it just is falling/flares to the back. Love the pattern.

Very nice quilt, like the arrangement of the blocks. Like like an 8!

Beautiful! You did a really good job. Love your color placement.

Beautiful, looks great to me.

Very pretty! Love the colors.

Nice job on your quilt. I like the setting. Looks like the perfect size for a couch throw!

Looks wonderful! I like it a lot.

Very lovely. I really like HST's. We can do so much with them and there are a multitude of possibilities! Oh the joy!

Beautiful quilt. I love the pattern and the colors.

I love it!

Very pretty and I also like the arrangement.

Very impressive use of HSTs. Love the quilt!!!

Wonderful setting, beautiful fabrics. You did an impressive job of sewing the HSTs together, if you started with triangles - and next time you know how to make them the easier way.

Wow!! Thank you all so much. I'm happy with the way it turned out but it was a journey getting there. :-) Here is more of the same material that I had put together and wasn't that keen on. What a difference. :-) Love the material, just don't like HST's. :-(

I love that design! It is one of those in my "bucket."

Beautiful. It feels great when we finally get something finished. Now I'll bet you're ready to start another one.

Very nice, warm cozy colors

nicely done

Beautiful quilt and backing. The colors are wonderful and so is the layout!

Your quilts are great. I'm intrigued. What is the easy way to work with HSTs?

Oh I love it!! Beautiful!

Put two 5" squares right sides together. Draw a line from one corner to the opposite. Sew a scant 1/4" on each side of the line. Cut on the line. Press. Voila - two HST in a square. No maneuvering on the bias. :-)

If you want smaller squares you can sew the 5" squares all the way around and cut from corner to corner. Smaller squares but HST all the same. :-) I learn from Jenny Doan. LOL

Oh, the rest that I made are here: http://www.pinterest.com/marcycn/qui...made-by-marcy/

Very nice!

I really like your layout and your colors

That is beautiful! Those triangles waited long enough - and wow, what a great quilt.

Beautiful quilt, well worth waiting for lol

Awesome job!

Wow...love this pattern. this looks AWESOME!

Great quilt AND great story! Love that the triangles came back to you.

This is gorgeous. Love the colors well worth waiting for!!!

Marcycn, I really like your color choices and the quilt is very nice!

It's quite a beauty of a quilt - love your back too - gives you two quilts in one :)
