Hurray! I finished my Sassy Triangle Quilt with time to spare! The weather cooperated for a bit so I was able to pop out between showers and take some photos. I really love how the winter grays work so well with the acid yellows and orchid purples.
I was able to use up the rest of this older fabric on the back. I don't often piece my backs this much but I certainly didn't want to go buy fabric so this was the best option.
For the quilting, I decided to give Amy's Scroll Flower a try. It must be really similar to something I have a definite muscle memory of as I always headed out in the wrong direction. Oh well, my flowers have three rows of petals. What can I say, it was late and my brain was too tired!
It still looks great however!
This quilt was so pretty laying next to my succulent garden with all of its spring growth and lime green plants. I am looking forward to another sunny day so I can go out and dig in the dirt!
Paula over at The Sassy Quilter hosted this little Quilt Along. Wasn't that nice of her! Final link ups of all finished quilts happens April 25th through May 3rd. I am really looking forward to seeing all the awesome triangle goodness!
Now on to the next project! I actually have two empty design walls right now.
We certainly need to remedy that!

Yes! This is a beautiful triangular finish, Cynthia! I absolutely adore the quilting. That extra row of petals? Love it! Good for you using what you had in your stash to complete that gorgeous backing. You make me wish I had more room for another design wall, too!
Looks great! Love the quilting and the backing is a lot of fun. Great, great finish!
The floral quilting (and the whole quilt) turned out great! Lovely!
Love this one! I never did get around to joining in the triangle along. Yours is beautiful. Great job on the quilting, too!
I love this quilting motif with the triangles, great choice. And the back is fabulous too.
Absolutely gorgeous!! Congrats on finishing up ahead of schedule!! :) Yay for you! Now fill that design wall!! LOL
Fantastic finish! Yay! Love that you tried the new flower quilt pattern :)
You are my heroine! TWO EMPTY design walls? I wanna be like you when I grow up, lol. This quilt is just beautiful, just glowing, and putting it outside in that setting definitely shows off not only the colours of the quilts, but also of the garden. I LOVE your garden path!! It oozes of serenity, harmony. Now I want to do this quilt along too! Funny, I thought of a similar flower to do on my Scrap-a-Palooza Bar quilt...great minds... :-)
Very SASSY! Love it.
Love the colors on this!!! And your flower quilting is beautiful! Sadly, I never got to mine. I suck. :( But glad to see such pretty triangle quilts!
Love the quilted flowers!
love the color combination, and the quilting it awesome!!!
Gorgeous! And I love the quilting, I've been wanting to try out Amy's flowers too, but everything in my quilting pile right now is too guy-oriented for flowers! You're welcome to some of the projects on my design walls if you want help filling yours :-)
Oh Cindy...I just love your finish!!! And your back is so fun!!! The colors blend just perfectly don't they!
Your triangle quilt is lovely. Am still binding mine.
These triangle quilts are popping up everywhere - but I especially like your fabric choices. Looks great!
Congrats on your finish - lovely! The colors, the quilting, and backing. Do you have plans for this one?
Love that triangle quilt! Great fabrics/colors and of couse, great job with the flower design! Thanks for linking up and participating!
It looks fantastic!!! I am working on quilting my triangle quilt right now! :)
Well done! A lovely finish and neat to see how you usd this month's fm design on it.
Excellent finish! I love the colors too! You have such a great eye and I'm always inspired by your choices. :)
Love your color choices here and the quilting looks fabulous!!!
Lovely finish. I think you should leave it there next to your garden and have a picnic.
Love the quilt as well as your quilting! I love the curviness of the flowers quilted on the pointy triangles! Wonderful!
Oh my goodness! This looks so amazing......and so does your garden by the way:) I really want to try that quilting design, it looks great.
This one is a beauty!! and your pieced backing looks fabulous!

Hi!!!! It is really pretty!!!!! Love the colors you used and it does look wonderful outside!!!!
This is very lovely...and I really like the bigger flowers...
Try this again. You did a great job with the scroll flower. I think it's a great match with the triangle quilt!
It looks superb outside! Using older fabrics for the backs of quilts is a great idea,and I love your pieced back just as much as the front.
Looks wonderful - and looks like two different quilts with that great back. Love it. Thanks for linking to TGIFF!
It turned out fabulous and I love the color combo.
Love those triangles! Your fabrics are so pretty together. And the back is almost as fun as the front! The quilting is perfect. Congrats on a great finish and thanks for linking up!

What a nice quilt. Thanks for sharing it on Tuesday Archives. I really like the quilting.
Everything about this quilt is great, I'm not a fan of purple but I really like it in this quilt. Inspiring me to go dig through the purple stash.
Thanks for resharing this! I really love triangles. But I also like how you did that framed large square on the back. I'll be filing that way for use sometime.
