These silly bowtie blocks have been hanging out on the wall for months now. I looked everywhere for the same gold background fabric to make setting triangles, but had no luck at all. Kathy suggested that I make triangles of all of the various colors, which sounded like a great suggestion. That meant digging through my humble little stash trying to find all of the colors of the rainbow, which is what led to the delay. Everything is a mess now, and I have made a lot of triangle shaped scraps, but I think the top is ready to sew together, Have I mentioned lately how awesome summer vacation is?
I am clapping here! It looks fabulous...I LOVE i! What a great quilt! Now you could add another scrappy colour play border to go all around...I'm just full of ideas for you to do more work! LOL

ReplyDeleteYour Bow Tie quilt is most original! WOW!
ReplyDeletePerfect choice!!! I really love the look of the colors in the setting triangles rather than the gold. Great quilt!!!
ReplyDeleteCathy's suggestion was obviously a good one!
ReplyDeleteWow! Beautiful layout! The muticolored setting triangles work really well. Isn't it amazing how necessity can really force you to adopt a more interesting setting?
ReplyDeleteGreat Job! I love the setting - can't wait to see the finished project.
