Field of Diamonds lap quilt
 
1 Attachment(s)
One of my UFOs is a large quilt in the Field of Diamonds pattern. A few days back, I saw an F&P show suggesting using their special ruler to cut half hexagons, which could be sewn together in strips with no Y seams. I don't worry about Y seams, but I decided to try the idea. I cut a template from old XRay film. This lap quilt was the result. I think I may do another oversized GFG variant this way. I enjoyed this one.

This looks great. I was introduced to this 1/2 Hex by a friend on QB the other day and have plans to try one. Yours is beautiful.

This is so pretty! The red fabric really adds the definition in this quilt.

I hate y seams, but I like your quilt a lot.

Very good job on this one. I don't do complicated patterns, I guess I am too lazy.
