Tangled Triangles quilt pattern

Tangled triangles quilt pattern

Creating Tangled Triangles can be a truly enjoyable and fulfilling experience. The process of making each block, although repetitive, can be quite therapeutic and rewarding.

The triangle log cabin block construction may seem a bit tricky at first, but using foundation piecing makes the making a breeze. The block starts with a central triangle and gradually you build around it, adding small fabric strips in a log cabin fashion. The result is a visually striking block that adds movement and depth to your quilt.

What makes this block even more delightful is the ability to play with colors and fabric choices. You can opt for a harmonious color palette to create a soothing, cohesive quilt, or you can go bold and experiment with vibrant hues to make a statement piece. The possibilities are truly endless, allowing you to tailor your quilt to your personal taste and the intended purpose.

So, gather your fabrics, dust off your sewing machine, and dive into the joy of quilting. Take your time, enjoy the process, and before you know it, you’ll have a collection of blocks ready to be assembled into a beautiful quilt that will not only keep you warm but also serve as a testament to your creative spirit.

Foundation piecing paper

I used regular copy paper but you may find it to be a bit thick. 

You can use special paper for foundation piecing if you prefer. 

Or you can use freezer paper instead and save lots of paper.
