so here are the three colors together, the purple, cheddar and green. i do believe this quilt is going to be bright! i've started both strippy units, the purple and cheddar. when i cut the purple triangles at first, i cut them so the strips are horizontal, but bonnie shows them cut on the vertical. i don't think it will matter in the finished quilt, scraps are scraps after all. but even if it does, i'm still going to use them. my cheddar stash is small compared to the purple, so there will be more variety in the purple. que sera sera. so i now have 5 days to finish all these; we'll see how they go. hoping the purple tones down the blinding cheddar somewhat. ***** cold but sunny today; hard freeze overnight; still no snow here, keeping my fingers crossed for the foreseeable future.
Love the color combo. You know, cheddar has been a hard color to find around here. That is disappointing.

ReplyDeleteI do believe it will be bright, lovely colors especially all those purples :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful colors-and I had the same thought about which way to cut the triangles,too. I double checked before cutting, just in case it does make a difference. But, had I cut first, I would do just as you plan to. It is what puts life into a quilt.
ReplyDeleteLove the color choices, especially the yellows!
