Introducing Simply Sparkles! This quilt top was made 100% on stream. I started off the stream thinking that this pattern was one of the more work-intensive patterns and yet still managed to finish the top in about 4.5 hours!
I should have taken the extra time to mark the diagonals for my hourglass and half square triangles instead of eyeballing it with the clearly perfect angles. Typically I don't need to mark the diagonals but as the squares get too large for my machine bed, marking the lines is the most accurate way to make the units.
I also boo boo-ed on cutting and I completely miscut one of the teal fat quarters and had to substitute it with a different V&Co teal! It looks like it matches regardless.
