Opinion and recommendation please !!
Hi everyone,
I saw an amazing triangle quilt at a quilt shop made with the tula pink chipper free spirit collection. It was so beautiful I decided I want to make one. I love the design for large print fabric and was thinking it would be great to use for other fabric I have been collecting. I don't want to end up with 2 identical patterned quilts though.
Does anyone have any ideas for variation of the triangle quilt or any other suggestions?

I really like the triangle patterns that Jaybird quilts comes up with. I made the chopsticks one, but she has loads of other options.

Yes but use lots of starch on all your fabrics before cutting and get a 60 degree triangle ruler. It will be worth it in the end, especially if you happen to like triangle quilts. You can use the ruler for other stuff too.

When nurses still wore caps, I would wash mine and use straight starch, stick it to the side of the refrigerator to dry, then iron it. Perfectly stiff every time! Since I know it works, now I have a new/old way to use the starch for fabric. Thanks!
