Finish It Up Friday...Helen's Triangles Christmas Quilt

Image
Happy Friday!! Went have gorgeous fall-ish weather this week and it has been good for the soul! I love, love the changing of seasons :) I am still finishing using up fabric and blocks I received over 5 years ago from the stash of a lady named Helen. I made this  , and this , and I finished two quilt tops for the family but I never blogged about them. In her stash were lots of squares of Christmas fabric folded in half diagonal. There were also a few pot holders made from said folded fabrics. She was apparently making them for lots of people. I took those squares and made half square triangle blocks from them. Here is the result!: I had to add a few borders to make it a good throw size. For the backing I used a piece of fabric I have been holding onto for who knows what, but its a bit of a brushed cotton, very soft! Yay for a finish!! Alissa
