The Big Zig!!!

It is quilted and the binding has been stitched! 
I am calling this one the Big Zig!
I have done a couple of other Zig Zag Quilts over the past several years...
here, here, and here


Here are the details...
The colors I chose for the Big Zig are: Snow for the solid areas, aqua/blue, grey, and orange.
I have used about 30 different fabrics.


Each half square triangle is about 5.5 inches square.
There are 100 half square triangles.


The overall size is about 56 inches X 56 inches.
It is hand quilted with perle cotton {Valdani} - in red/orange, grey, orange.
100% cotton Batting.
The back is an aqua tiny gingham.

  
The binding is Flea Market Fancy.
Hand stitched on the back.


Yay!  One more to check off my list!
Cheers!
