Some of you may remember when I was trying to turn a diamond into a rectangle to create my first doll quilt. Well, you asked me to post he final outcome. Here is the truth: you CAN NOT turn a diamond made with 60 degree cuts into a rectangle. so I quilt trying, added fabrics to the four corners and loved my result. Suesews said she likes it, so that's all I care about!

ps I used the left over pieced diamond strips for the binding!

That turned out great. Sometimes a change of plans turns into an even better idea.
