This Friday is the big launch of my first Quilt Along and I am so excited!!! A big thanks to everyone who has already thrown their name in the hat for this one(air hugs coming your way!). I can’t wait to quilt along with this fantastic group of quilters:)
Is it just me or have you guys noticed triangles everywhere! This may be like when you get a car and you all of a sudden notice the same one everywhere:) Ever since I made my triangle quilt I have been obsessed with all things triangle. Seeing them around every corner and loving all the triangle projects I spot, even adding them to my Pinterest board> Triangles, Triangles, Triangles. I started this board before my project so I could work up the nerve to make one myself. Something about those pointy little things is scary to quilters who haven’t yet taken the plunge:)
Check out all the places these gorgeous triangles are showing up….

I can’t wait for Fiday. I’m on vacation and Baby Lizzie (sewing machine) made the trip with us so I don’t get behind on the QAL.
Being new to Flickr, I couldn’t figure out how to follow the group. Finally I signed in, and then I eventually saw “Follow this group” or something next to “Triangle Quilt Along”. But I didn’t know that, as I have another flickr group (for hexagons) that I have yet to figure out how to follow, but I think now I know. So I think it would help to give us Flickr newbies a little tutorial on using Flickr with the triangle Quilt A Long.
Thanks for hosting this quilt-a-long. This is my first time in a quilt-a-long. I hope I can keep up with the work!
HI!!!! I am excited to get started!!!! Thanks for the fun!!!!
Yay! I’ll get my fabric pics posted this week! I’ll be out of town next week, but I’ll hopefully do a little this weekend, then play catch up as soon as I get back. I’m really excited for this!
I have been wavering whether or not to follow along since I’m so new to quilting and just finished the other QAL, wondering if I needed a break, but as I tend to bend to the whims of The Universe, the decision was made for me. I was at my local quilt shop yesterday, and as I was having some yardage cut, I noticed the rulers for sale hanging on the wall, so I asked if they had the equilateral triangle ruler since I couldn’t see one. There was instantly a frenzy of activity as 4 employees dashed about the shop trying to locate one, and alas, someone found a spare ruler tucked away in a drawer. The little ruler, lost and forgotten in a storeroom drawer, came home with me, and we’re ready to quilt along! I should probably get some fabric now! ;)
Don’t you love when the universe does that to you? I’m hoping to pull from my stash for this project. I have 4 drawers of fabric, so surely that will be enough.
I’m in. woo hoo!
Oh girl, I cannot resist. I have a project in my head, and fabric on the shelf, which is calling out…
Triangles are much more fun than squares! I’m getting my fabrics together :-)
Just want to double check… is all I need to do to sign up for the QAL joining the Flickr group?
Yes, or just saying you’re in!
I really want to join you guys on this – loving all the triangle quilts I’m seeing everywhere! Super busy, though, and not sure I can fit in a big one – can I join in even if I just make something small with my triangles?
Absolutely! Please do:)
Can’t wait to get started! I need to pull fabric :)
I’m still in chaos with our recent move. Hope I can get my sewing studio up and running and can get started on this.
Hoping to May be join in as well Paula. I just won a most beautiful variety of aqua fabrics and I think this just may be the project for them :)
oh, yeah. they are the new “it” shape. we are definitely on trend with this one! =) you stylish thang, you. lol. (did I mention your new profile pic is really nice?)
Thanks Hydeeann:) You are too sweet!
