WIP Wednesday – February 20, 2013

When your husband requests that you make a baby quilt for his friend’s newborn baby and he accompanies that request with a picture of the nursery for inspiration, you have no excuse not to make the quilt right away!

I immediately pulled the stack above and got a great response on Instagram.  I don’t know why, but I was really inspired to do an equilateral triangle quilt and I’m so glad I did — it was so fast!

Laying out the triangles was seriously the most time consuming part of this quilt.  I think that took me even longer than the quilting, and I did a lot of quilting!

Seriously, it was so fast that I also was able to make this quilt top (hello, shameless copy)!
