Pattern Description:

{Winner of the Fall 2012 Blogger Quilt Festival Two Color Quilt Category @ Amy's Creative Side)

This quilt pattern was inspired by a rug my cousin pinned to a design board on Pinterest. I made a passing comment that it would make a cool quilt, and after that she had to have it!
Because of the geometric design of the quilt, and the varying angles, I decided it would be best as a paper piecing pattern though I have made various attempts at trying to achieve the design without paper piecing, it just won't work.

I have included a brief tutorial on how to paper piece if you are new to it, though the paper piecing in this pattern is quite basic, and I believe anybody could do it.

Pattern includes written and photo instruction.
