Wise-Owl Quilt

Some good friends of ours, the Wise's, are expecting a little one.  I ordered some owl fabric and bought some coordinating solids, cut it all up into little pieces, and sewed it back together.  I'm just a little bit in LOVE with how it turned out...
I've been wanting to make an isosceles triangle quilt for a while, so glad I did!

I did double parallel line quilting on the diagonal sides of the triangles which gave a diamond pattern to the minkey fabric I used for the backing.

Also really happy with how the binding turned out.  Getting better at mitered corners, and keeping the edges from doing this wonky wavy thing.

Now I only have one queen sized one to finish start & finish, along with a throw for the couch...crazy quilt lady!
