Colour Crazy Equilateral Triangles

I’ve been wanting to experiment with this for ages, but getting the fabric for it has been impossible – until recently a shop opened up that stocks the foll range of Kona solids. Now I can just walk into a shop and do this:

I didn’t really know how much to cut up. I had 10 inch strips, and strangely I decided to do 5 1/2 in triangles. I just cut a strip worth of each. If I’d been thinking it through more, I would have gotten slightly wider strips. Whatever – I had a 4-year-old with me in the shop, so I’m lucky I made it out.

I’m making this for my neighbour’s baby. He’s almost 6 months old, so I kinda feel wish I’d done 4 1/2 inch triangle now so that I could have done more triangles and made him a larger quilt.

But I’m really enjoying this, so this won’t be the last time I try out this idea.
