Focus Friday– Flock of Triangles Quilt Review

The flock of triangles quilt is an interesting one.  It is definitly not a pattern for beginners. It deals with bias edges, and points, points, points girls!! There are so many of them—they are everywhere!   I love the idea of the triangles, but and all.  Do I want to make one larger than I made? never.

Taking the square and cutting it twice so you get 4 triangles- fun. But after… you have a monster pile of triangles.

I decided to give it a try on a smaller scale…doll quilt. But then when I started adding the strips it was longer than wider…and so I added a border…and then another. You know how it goes…do one thing…it just keeps going. So now I have a finished size of 36" X 32" baby quilt.

It isn't my favorite. I am a symetrical kind of person…..left is the same as the right. Clearly with this quilt that is NOT the rule.  It is more like a improv quilt.   And, don't get me started on those points! Please, I beg…do not look at the points. They are so horrible. And Don't look at the top row. It is sooo off.  There really isn't a great way of lining those rows up so the points all match. ugh.

You looked didn't you? Shame on you. I shouldn't have said anything, then you wouldn't have noticed. Isn't that how it goes?
