Half Square Triangle Quilt- Quilted
Before Thanksgiving I made up a small half square triangle quilt. I had been stewing on how to quilt it. Basically, I ended up going with "old faithful" in the middle of the quilt. I'm getting pretty good at that nested paisley looking design. I used a grey/smoke/white variegated quilting thread on the top. Its subtle, but in my mind I'm totally branching out. (from just quilting in white only) =)
For the borders I tried something crazy- straight-ish lines with quilted cornerstones. Sorry the picture is so washed out/blurry. I did quilt using black all purpose Coats 'n Clark in the black borders.
And there it is in all its small-ish quilt glory. I think it would be a good size for a couple 18" dolls. Or maybe even a good stroller blanket, since its narrow enough to fit down into the stroller without completely losing the kid in there.
