    Default Life Saver Quilt

    This one really reminds me of those bright little candies! It was fun to do and really not as hard as it may look. I sewed strips together and then cut on my Accuquilt with the Isocles triangle die. I did use spray starch on the strips which really helped in the whole process. Easy peasy! For quilting, I did different fillers in the white areas (stipple, pebbles, wavey lines, loops and meander). The back has a strip of left overs from the piano key border.

    I love everything about your quilt: lime green backing, different FMQ in the white areas and the bold colors. Wonderful, wonderful.

    This is so bright and fun! I love the way you cut the isosceles triangles with strips and the Accuquilt. I'll have to keep an eye out for that die!
