...Trusty Half Square Triangles.
The best bit is I already had a bunch of White and Solid colour fabric cut into squares (from a different quilt that I haven't finished, don't judge)
Picking the size for a quilt is one of my down falls, I always pick a big size and then double think it half way through - another reason I didn't like the Christmas Tree quilt!
But the amount of fabric I had already cut made the decision on the size - it was like fate!
I didn't have quiet enough white fabric so I threw in some solid colour squares and that came together super quick
In fact its done!!
Its 60 X 60 which is apparently throw size, I'm not sure if it would suit a boarder, my plan was to scavenge the boarder off of the Christmas Tree quilt and use it on on this one - I think it would make squaring it up a little easier but I'm not sold on the idea yet
Next is the backing and considering I already spent money on the Christmas Tree Quilt I really don't want to spend any more. My problem is I only really buy fat quarters or at the most half meters of fabric so I don't have enough of anything in my stash. I did consider using the Christmas Tree one as a backing but I realllyyyy don't like it but at some random hour of the night I remembered a WIP that might work
Who remembers me talking about Swarm....?

I "just" have to sew the rows together and it will be complete.
I'm taking out 4 rows because I had originally planned for it to be 75X85 which is too big for what I need. Lets see how long this one takes me and if I finish it
