I found this little package of 1/2 squares - I think They called it a Turnover.... but truly - I can't remember. It just looked cute and I am a sucker for pre-cuts.....
I also told myself I had better get busy - this had to be made into something before 2015..... and
Surprise!!! Not only did I make the top - I quilted it. Yep.... just the binding awaits.... ( after I figure out how I want to bind it)
I had such a fun time quilting it... I had no plans so I combined a pantograph and bubbles and lines and just had a good time.
I used Quilters Dream - Dream Puff batting - I LOVE that batting. It is puffy ( duh) and light weight - but so warm..... and if you live in my house in the winter - you want warm . Someone might not like to turn the heater up.....
I am thinking that I will bind it in Dark Blue
Or maybe Lime Green..... Ideas?
This is the back - I zig zag print. There is a quilt shop in Fort Morgan - Inspirations- the boys had a Cross Country meet there - so I went a tad early and checked out the shop - and found this zig zag -
And now I have a puffy perfect yummy warm quilt... that needs binding.... But I am happy!

Really nice and I like the idea of the dark blue binding too.
Love what you did with the squares and the quilting is so unique! I would call it "Just Because." When one makes a quilt just because she feels like it (even if there is a deadline, ha), it turns out great! You did good!
How about a striped binding? Maybe find a print with these colors in it, or black & white would work too.
Love the zig zag quilt--such cool colors! How big is it and the 1/2 square triangles? I might hafta do one of those. The quilting is beautiful also. GOOD JOB!
Beautiful quilting and design Alycia! I am sure you were screaming........screaming for joy!!!!!
That is so cute and I love your quilting!
I'd go with lime green for the binding. Really cool little quilt and I love how you quilted it.
LOVE this!! What about lime and blue for the binding? The quilting is fabulous. . . as usual ;)
WOW, the quilting on that is phenominal! Great job!
Absolutely beautiful quilting! I am loving all the circle designs you have been using lately. I think framing it with a lime binding would be fun!
As soon as you said binding I guessed lime green!
Great quilt.
Lovely quilt. If it were mine, I'd bind in white except match the edges of the zig zag.
Wow! are your bubbles freehand or template?
I love the quilt! Your quilting is exquisite too.
And of course we NEVER want to go to the quilt shop.............
I would say a dark blue or the dark grey for binding. It sure is lovely and it shows you had a good time quilting it.
Adorable! Your quilting is amazing.
The top and the quilting are stunning!!! All the good suggestions for the binding, makes your job not easier!! I will come back to see it with your binding.

Wow, I love the quilting - super fun! Tough call on the binding
The quilt looks fabulous! The quilting adds such wonderful texture. I vote for the blue binding, but then blue is my favorite color. :) Visiting from Let's Bee Social.
What a pretty quilt. I like the giant bubbles.
Pretty quilt and fun quilting! I initially wondered about white binding, but that might be weird. I think I'd do a lighter blue, but you can't really go wrong.
This is fabulous! I adore the quilting. Especially those bubbles! How fun! Binding? You can do it!
Spectacular! I love it!
Beautifully done. Love the quilt and the quilting!
Very creative and inspiring quilting!!
