The multiple bias edges were somewhat controlled by starching every time I pressed.

This is definitely a happy, patriotic quilt. I can almost hear a John Phillips Sousa march!
ReplyDeleteI think this is one of my favorites. I love the different directions the "banners" take.
ReplyDeleteA very good name for the quilt! I like the look of banners flying in the wind! Cool design.
ReplyDeleteWow! I was thinking flags flapping too when I saw it and then read your post and saw you had that in mind. And the 2 fabrics in those triangles is really what makes this so much more visually exciting than simple one fabric triangles would have.
ReplyDeleteGreat quilt and the perfect name!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute quilt. It does look like banners flying in the wind.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! A different take on HST.
ReplyDeleteYes, banners or I think the British call it bunting! Very festive, I like your design.
ReplyDeleteI love it!! As a marching band kid from way back... well, I also love the musical The Music Man... A very happy quilt, to be sure!
