Half Square Triangle Quilt

This is the pattern I used to make this quilt - each block is a different arrangement of half-square triangles, each is unique, there are 72 of them.

Here they are finally finished trying to figure out a layout I liked - it took me a half hearted 2 years to finish all the blocks? maybe, I can't remember. I was definitely working on these at our old house. They got pushed to the back burner a lot while I worked on other things, like the couch slip covers.

The blocks with white sashing.

Here is an up close of the quilting - so glad I sent it out to be professionally quilted, it looks so good.

Top Tip: any time you spread a quilt on the ground, all the children in the area will come stand right on top of it. The back is a gentle paisley that magically matches all the pink, blue, green on the front. The binding is a solid pink.

Here it is on the bed. I'm a little neurotic about this quilt, it being so white and new and fresh, very nervous of messy hands and dirty shoes. That will happen eventually, but hopefully not for a few years.
