New Blue Quilt

 

I ordered a bunch of lovely blues and I have been thinking of what to make with them. Here are the middle range blues. 

Finally I figured out what I wanted, and I would need some light blues too, so here are some light blues.


In 2015 I made this quilt from scraps, and I always liked it. The first question was how big did I want the triangles to be:


The triangles on the right are 9" tall and I thought they were too big. The ones on the left are 8" tall, and I like the fact that they lean to the right.

One of the things I liked about the inspiration quilt was the bright colors in the light fabrics, so I went through my stash and found a few I thought would work. I've started cutting some pieces, but I have a lot more to cut.

I'm looking forward to playing with this shape and the blues.

The scraps quilt was lovely. I look forward to seeing the blue version.
