It was a No Sew Sunday but that doesn’t mean I didn’t get anything done. I cut 18 additional FQs into 6″ triangles to make my Triangle quilt larger. These FQs were cut right at 18″ so I had a hard time getting 12 triangles out of each one…I was able to with most, but I got 10 or 11 out of three of them. Not a huge deal – I have plenty to make the quilt bigger and those few triangles I wasn’t able to get won’t affect the size at all.
I laid out four extra rows and I added five triangles to each row, then I pinned them all so that next time I’m in the mood I can simply sit down at Bunny and get sewing. I have enough triangles to add either one more row or add to the width…we’ll see how it looks once I have the extra four rows sewn together.
I’ll be honest and say that I’m not looking forward to the next step – Joining the Rows. I’m not a real patient pinner, so this will be tough for me!

Good work for a no sew day! Deep breaths… you can do it, pinning that is:) Depending on how you pressed you may be able to get by without it. Good luck!
I didn’t press to a particular side – I just pressed toward the darker one, so it will be a total crap-shoot when it comes to that step! I considered pressing seams open, but I didn’t want things to stretch and get wonky.
Suck it up, Jules. I’m dying to see the results.

Your triangles are looking sew good! You can do it! Sew those rows, girlfriend!
Thanks! It’s kind of daunting at this point! I most certainly won’t have a top assembled this week, but I’ve stayed on track a whole lot better than I thought I would!
I pressed my even rows one direction and my odd rows the opposite direction. Still needed to pin. You can handle it, Julie! Just takes a little longer!
I will be pinning, I just won’t like it! 🙂
None sew day are essential to allow sew days later. I like the idea of having things ready to stitch when I get a few minutes without having to spend a lot of prep time.
