The Triangle Baby Quilt Progress

Linking up with Heather at "Needlework Tuesday"
This has been an experiment, a first for me of this kind of triangle quilt.  I began with all these fabrics and cut a lot of equilateral 4.5" triangles. I have a lot left so there may be another triangle design in my future!
After sewing about three rows I hated it, way too crazy busy, simply awful! Eliminating the two black and white fabrics made a big difference then introducing a WOW helped tone down the design.
It's now ready to quilt and I haven't decided how to do that, I want something modern but not too much quilting it needs to stay soft and cuddly for a baby quilt.
It measures 42"x55" just about right for a baby.

Hi Roslyn,
The quilt looks very cuddly. I'm sure it will keep baby very warm. Have a great day!!

I am satisfied with it, a very modern looking quilt for a baby I think but that seems to be what most new moms want now.
Maybe I will love it once I quilt it!

very nice, I have a tri-die I hope to do a few small quilts with. Wonder how this would look in reds!
