Congratulations on finding "the groove." I can't wait to see your quilt - SAS is my favorite pattern.

Just FYI: Deb Tucker has a Diamond Recs ruler for those diamonds. I haven't tried it but I love everything of hers that I have tried.

Love the SAS and anxious to see yours when finished. In the end it will be worth it. I'm originally from up northern Indiana and we also say "BLESS YOUR HEART".

The Storm at Sea block is so beautiful. I once made one for our church raffle quilt for the holiday Fair, however, I made a slight miscalculation and accepted when a friend offered to make half the blocks. Mistake, as we were sewing on different sewing machines with different 1/4" seams. I did manage to get it together and a very nice lady in church offered to do the hand quilting on it - it was beautiful when done, however, I learned to always use the same machine when piecing as it makes a difference. I can't wait to see your DD's finished quilt, as I love batiks, and blue and purple batiks should make a beautiful quilt.
