Karla,

I love what you've started. The grey is perfect for setting off the deeper scraps. Please keep us posted on your progress!

Love your gray background fabric. I would never have thought of using gray for a background. It is very pretty.

No--it's a tricky thing to get that row of triangles correct--and you can see I'm not matching up the points perfectly.
They're made by cutting 3 1/8" squares and going from there. I made four rows of the triangle sewed together, then sew them in a diagonal piece. The large triangles are made from 7 5/8" squares.
