Lilac and Beige Quilt

This was made using some of the triangles left over from the lilac and green quilt together with some pinky/beige triangles. In true scrap quilt philosophy I raided my stash and found some ticking for the back and some left over bump for the wadding, but I did buy new fabric for the border. There is no proper binding, I just turned the raw edges of front and back in and top-stitched them together. There is machine quilting in the ditch around the colour stripes.

This is not much bigger than a cot quilt and was made as an exercise to understand the different ways of combining the light and darktriangles of different colours.
