Colour me happy

That's the name I've given to this easy-as-pie colourful little quilt I have made for the Knotty Ladies to sell at The Square.

To make this quilt, all you do is cut strips of fabric across the width of the bolt in widths every 1/4" from 1 1/2" to 3".  If you decide you want your squares to be 8" you will need 4 1/2" worth of strips (half the final block measurement plus two 1/4" seam allowances). Keep adding strips until you have your desired width then you make 45 degree cuts through the strips to create triangles and join 4 together to make a square. I have made every piece different but you could just as well join 4 identical triangles together for a less random quilt top. The finished quilt has a 3D effect. It's neat because matching seams is not essential.  I've machine quilted this with an uneven zig-zag on my domestic machine.
I hope it makes someone very happy.
