It's a Flimsy! Confetti Waves


Confetti Waves
48 x 64

Ocean Waves blocks made of "waste triangles" instead of HSTs. 

 

I just sewed a waste triangle to a corner of a 2.5 inch square and trimmed then sewed them together in the same configuration as the Ocean Waves blocks I blogged about yesterday.  It looks like these blocks have been around since December 2015.  I recently made four more blocks and then ran out of the solid red I had in with the blocks. So I guess that dictated the size of the quilt. It will be a donation quilt when quilted.

The red background makes the scrappy triangles shimmer! And congratulations on winning the Stashbusters UFO contest.

Another super quilt! I know how you work making lots of sets of different blocks at the same time but when you suddenly show two completed flimsies two days running I can't help but be amazed!

I agree with Nann, shimmer is a good description of your
confetti flimsy!

I like this a lot and it's a very clever idea to use the little scraps but then set them in traditional ways.

I love this quilt top -- I like this version of the design even more than the original! Congrats on a fabulous finished top!

I love the more openness of this (from the triangles being smaller and different sizes)! It looks really great.
