I am super excited that I have my One Monthly Goal done for January!
I decided to do a herringbone design in the pieced triangles using red thread. Then I debated a lot over what to quilt in the white background. In the end I decided on swirls. This is something that's very easy for me to do so I end up defaulting to this choice quite often. I am actually trying to do some different quilting this year, but for this quilt, the swirls seemed like the best choice. I love it and glad I went with the swirls this time!
I love the look of all these triangles lining up perfectly!
I think I originally planned on using red for the binding, but couldn't find what I had in mind. Then I found this dark green with a gold metallic swirl and thought it was just right for this quilt!
Here's the swirl - I am loving the texture this quilt has with the fairly dense quilting!
Peaks is available now in my Etsy shop.

It's beautiful, Pamela! The quilting part is where I get hung up too. Too many choices and when it's a big one, I want it to be easy! I'll bet it feels so awesome to have this UFO done and out of the pile!
