Name: Spikes
Working Title: Triangles

Started: 2020 (design process), 2022 (sewing)
Completed: 22nd of January 2023
I am currently counting it complete even though it is a quilt top. I know that I will use it as a wall decoration on my wooden frame only due to the metallic fabric which looks good but for me does not make a “use me” quilt to cuddle under. I could of course also quilt it for the wall and maybe I decide to do that later. But for now, this is my decision ;)

Inspiration: This pin and this pin of art by Eloise Renouf.
Pattern: Spikes & Diamonds by myself
Technique: fpp (foundation paper piecing)

Fabrics: 6
(4) blue(ish) Kona Cotton – Ocean, Celestial, Nightfall, Storm – and (2) metallic fabrics – rose gold and copper.
Quilting Design: none
Binding: none

Size: approx. 80 inches square
Block Size: 8.5″ × 13″ finished
Different Block Designs: 1 + 2 half-block designs
Blocks: 50 + 4 sets half-blocks
Units per Block: 17
Pieces: 918
