    Default Triangle quilt

    This is one of mine. I was inspired by BeckySt chopsticks quilt posted here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...t-t213042.html
    While Becky shared the pattern and source, I opted not to buy the pattern as I had a 60 degree ruler. I think my triangles came out much smaller than the pattern. I asked for help with layout here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...t-t236780.html

    So a little over a year later I finally finished. I pieced the back out of leftovers. I really contemplated using it as a back because it would make a nice front too. Kind of modern. But, I decided to use it as the back so the quilt is double sided.

    I used Hobbs polydown batting. Now all that is left to do is bind it. Then I can gift it to my boss.

    Here is the top:

    Here are a couple of closeups of the quilting. I repeated the same design in all the inner white triangles and used a swirly fantasy feather in the colored triangles and the border

    I really love your quilt! What size triangles and strips did you cut? I also have a 60 degree ruler. And the back is wonderful!!!! I would love that as a quilt top too.
