Diamonds In the Rough

My year of making string quilts started out

with these lovely color family isosceles triangles.

The blocks are coming along nicely.


Smaller amounts of lovely greens and purples,




and yellow, blues and oranges.


Surprisingly, a large amount of browns, 


and the same amount of beige/white units!


Red seems to be the big winner!


They will end up in a few different tops.


It is possible that one will be completely blue,

with maybe a hint of yellow or green thrown into spice it up.

Maybe even black, which always makes the colors pop.

Blue is my largest scrap color 

so there are a lot more scraps to be sewn up. 

There weren't any gray strips lining up

to go into the triangle blocks.

The gray drawer in my storage bin,

has an abundance of strips so I may revise that,

 in order to add gray to one of the colors 

that's a little short on blocks.

That was my initial plan but a 

color wash top would be fun too!

The color piles were moved in to storage bins in 

the workroom to present a bit tidier look for zoom meetings . 

The tidy lightens up the mood too!
