I prepared everything as a travel project when I went to a national Girl Guide camp in Alberta in July 2016. What was I thinking??? There's never time when you're working as Core Crew. 😪 The poor project never saw the light of day at camp, and I only just recently remembered it.
I started piecing small sections together. One section was torn apart and re-done because I wasn't paying attention to colour placement.
It started to slowly come together, as I pieced one small section to another.
And here's the top section.
And then finally the third section. The end was in sight! By this time, I was really enjoying EPP. I glue basted and used Glide thread.
Voilà -- a finished mini.
I'm stalled at the moment as I'm unsure as to next steps. I was hoping to add some borders, but I don't have any more of the linen-y navy blue. I forgot to write down the Kona colours for the two lighter blues, but I can easily match those with my colour card. But I'm not in a rush to finish because then I'll have to make the hard decision on how to quilt it.......
Kudos to you. This is going to be fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI love the careful placement of your prints and colors, Anja. I'm fascinated by the triangular shape, too. How big is it, roughly, right now?
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, I love the colours and it just goes to show how many wonderful layouts can be made from the humble diamond :)
ReplyDeleteA beautiful piece! I'm wondering what your plan is for finishing it. Are you going to leave it in the triangle I hope so.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty piece! Do you plan to border the triangle or add pieces to make a triangle in the center of a square-ish piece? Though you probably don't want to, you could trim off the slate blue diamonds on the edges for a straight line, and go from there.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous. Love the colours and the shape shows how much you pay attention to details. Well done!!
