Setting finally decided on

I'm not sure why but I've been agonizing over the setting for the 98 Triangle Gathering blocks that I made.  Clearly I won't put them all into one quilt. vbg

I finally decided on something very simple...  Here is just one section, so far:



I am putting them on point with a very simple light sashing cut 2-1/2" along with brightly colors cornerstones;  I'm also using brights for the setting triangles, to be different along each side.  I haven't decided yet how large I'll make it.  Maybe I'll just keep going until I get tired of it!! vbg

Today is an important holiday, recognizing those people who sacrificed so much for us.  I hope you are enjoying a wonderful long weekend and remembering someone who was a veteran!

  7. What a terrific setting! On point is perfect for these varied blocks and I really like the idea of each side of setting triangles being different. This is going to be a lovely quilt!

  12. That looks really cool.....how many quilts do you think you will make with all the triangles? I see Lisa is still gathering quilts from her blocks for a book. Happy Sewing :0)
