The good news is - I've already filed my 2017 taxes!
And the other good news is I pieced this week's scrappy triangle block, another easy one.
As I mentioned before, the most "difficult" thing about these blocks is choosing the fabric.
This was my first effort, notice how blah it looks with that large triangle?
It looked okay when I laid it out, but when I got it pieced I realized the large triangle completely drowned out that small print fabric that touched it.
I really wanted to use that cute print, so the triangle had to go - it wasn't hard to replace it!
I'm going with a 13 x 15 setting, without sashing, with a green 2" inner border. The outer border will be 4" for sure, but I haven't decided on the color yet. Alternating black-on-white with white-on-black? Or should the inner border be black-on-white with a green outer border?? There's plenty time to decide!
That's my good news, now I have to fight with Pepco over the ridiculously large bill they just sent me. Sew forth and sew on.
I just love your churn dash blocks!!
ReplyDeleteooh, oh, ooh! Loving those churn dashes!
ReplyDeleteI just got done scrolling back and looking at all your Scrappy Triangles. They are amazing! Way to go on keeping up too!
ReplyDeleteI think the hardest part is choosing the fabric too. So many fabric combinations!
