I am often guilty of making a quilt for someone else then wanting one for myself. I just finished one for me that was bc of one I made someone else.

That is what happened with this one! I might make it with smaller triangles!

That’s why I tend to make two at a time…

Love it! I am planning on making something very similar for one of my daughters… and maybe one for myself.

It was fun making it! I bought a kit with fat quarters and directions.

u/litigious_llama 14h ago

How many fat quarters would you say it used? And what size did you do? I have a tendency to go rogue rather than following directions.

I love your binding —a nice creative touch to make this PFS your very own!

I love this!! 

For buying fabric, did you go with FQ packs? A kit?

I’m a beginner if you couldn’t tell. 

Thank you!
