Okay, okay, you caught me. I admit it. I have an addiction... to quilt alongs. I just can't resist! Every time someone hosts one, I HAVE to join. On top of that, I have my Park Bench BOM club I'm signed up for, and I'm trying to keep up with the Lucky Stars BOM over at Don't Call Me Besty (I'm doing both a 6" and 12" block, and let me tell you, the points on those 6" blocks are driving me crazy)... but it's just not the same as a good old fashioned quilt along! And with the Star Light Star Bright QAL wrapping up, you bet I was looking for something new!
Well, enter Paula over at the Sassy Quilter. She's easily one of my favourite quilt bloggers. She's got amazing tips and tricks for new and old quilters alike. And when I saw the triangle quilt along, I was honestly so excited. Not only did I know exactly what fabrics I was going to use for this project - I actually knew how I wanted to quilt it, before I even got started! And did I mention there's a Flickr group? Well, there is. You can find it here. Oh, and you can find me on Flickr here, if you're interested in photos of puppies and kitties and quilts.
The fabric I'm using is Table for Two by Sandy Gervais for Moda Fabrics. I'm not going to lie, the more I look at this fabric, the more worried I get. I'm scared that this is going to be one of those quilts that, by the time I'm finished, I can't stand to look at anymore. But I keep reminding myself that I was SO CONVINCED this was the fabric to go for, and I'm gonna stick it out. After all, I can always give it away if I hate it (which wouldn't be a bad thing... I don't have enough room for all these quilts. Can anyone else relate?)
Anyway, in case you noticed, I'm a little bit behind. Last week we were supposed to have finished cutting our fabrics, and this week, we're linking up our finished rows. I actually just finished cutting my triangles up tonight (eep!) so I have to do some marathon sewing if I want to catch up.
I love your triangles. Table for Two is a really cute line. I am not good with triangles, I should have done this QAL to get some practice! Have fun. Can't wait to see the finish!
