22.5" x 25.5"
So, no judging here please. I am mostly blogging about this so I can remember for next time that I don't want to quilt on the diagonal at least not without some practice. This little quilt is made from half square triangles that finish at 1.5". They were leftover from a quilt I made several years ago and I thought it might be nice to make something for the wall. I only quilted in the white spots and used some l's and some back and forth. But between the diagonal quilting and the thickness of the HSTs it is so sloppy looking. And a bit puffy in a few spots. At least from a distance you can't tell too much.
By the time I'd done a couple sections, I pretty much gave up on doing it nicely and I was just going for done. I've got two quilts I need to make and this one was loaded on the longarm so it had to be finished - pretty or not.
Note to self - let's not do little triangles! And for goodness sake, don't try to custom quilt it when you are in a hurry!
