I don't get to make quilts very often because 1. I don't have enough money running around and 2. I don't need any more quilts. So my future mother in law has given me some red white and blue fabric she has. The pattern is pretty simple but it'll serve it's purpose. And none of those dreadful triangles to deal with! When I'm done piecing it together I'm going to give it back to her and she'll quilt it. After that it'll be sent off to a hospital and given to a wounded soldier.
I have learned a valuable lesson from working on this quilt, and that lesson is: triangles are hard! Wow. I had no idea. This is only the second quilt I've made, but the first one was much easier and looked so much better. That said, the quilt still looks pretty good, especially for my first quilt that's all triangles.
Here's the quilt for Kyle in progress. It's going to be one big Sierpinski's triangle. I have a tendency to draw them ALL THE TIME, so I think it will remind him of me. <3
