I like the quilt, very colourful and scrappy. With regards to your corner problem I would simply cut more triangles, just larger, that fit and trim if needed.

The white triangles all along the bottom - would a triangle that size fit your corners better?

Hi Sarah -- love the colors!!

It looks like your corner problem actually started about the 6th row down, right side -- your seams aren't lining up, thereby throwing it off. I couldn't begin to tell you how to fix it. But it sure is going to be pretty when you're done.
Happy Trails, jacquie

Very nice and colorful Sara.

For a quick fix, maybe exchange the bottom left triangle for a larger one. Not too sure why it happened but that might fix it for this time.
Have Fun,

Hi Sarah, very nice!! I do see the problem on that row that your are talking about. I know you don't want to hear this, but the points on that row are off too much for it to lay right. I've had to do this before and it's not fun but if I were you, I'd take that long seam out and re-do just that row. Pin, tug, ease all those points to make it fit. Once you get it, press it using sizing to really make it lay flat. If you put a first and second border on, it will make any points that are off a little less obvious. After it's quilted and binded, even less obvious.

You quilt is beautiful, Sarah. Your the only one besides me that has made a special quilt with your noodles!! YAY!! I love it! Amie :o)


PS- Just looking at the corners, they look too small. Did you cut your 5.25" squares once or twice?

Looking good Sarah - I haven't done anything with my noodles yet :o) Do as Amie suggested and you'll be fine
