Default Diamond Log Cabin Star Finished--Hand Quilted

About one year ago, I completed the top for this quilt. I wanted it hand quilted and found a very nice Amish lady who does beautiful work and now it is in the "done" pile. [ATTACH=CONFIG]407440[/ATTACH]

[ATTACH=CONFIG]407441[/ATTACH]This is the back with her amazing work. Feathers, hearts and each log was SID around the perimeter. She does beautiful work.[ATTACH=CONFIG]407443[/ATTACH]
Here you can see the SID. It is more pink than rose to the eye with a floral design in the fabric.

Here is one of the diamonds that surround the center stars. I tried my hand at dyeing to get the color wash effect that I was unable to find.

This is the corner triangle that shows her quilting. I hope you enjoy seeing a project finally completed. It was my first attempt at piecing and I am sew hooked on quilting now.

Neither can I believe this is your first attempt! You did a wonderful job and the hand quilting the lady did on it is amazing! Great job by the two of you!
