I used Cotton Club by Marcus Fabrics for the Set - in triangles. And I used solid Navy Moda Bella for the sashing.
When quilting I have a hard time deciding what to do in the set-in triangles on all quilts on point. But with my Christmas money from my parents I got some new rulers and I had be waiting for the right quilt to try using the Curved Crosshatch ruler. Not all my arches are perfect. But I was excited to be able to play with my new ruler.
I also didn't like to see the cream thread cross over my sashing, so I decided to change to navy for quilting my sashing. That was a lot a thread changes. But it was worth it in the end.
Thanks for letting me share my quilt today.
Beautiful quilt. The navy sashing really sets it off and frames the blocks well.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful quilt. I really love that curved cross hatching. Can you point me in the right direction - a URL maybe - to buy rulers I can use to do that? Thanks. And yes - all those thread changes were definitely worth it!
