I love the pattern! Will you share?

I love this quilt and how the diamonds interlock. A very intreguing design and perfect quilting.

Awwww Susie,

That is such a lovely thing to say. I have missed posting too. Lockdown put me in a real stitching funk... but hopefully I am out of it now and back at the machine!!!!

Hugs

Gemm,

This is one of the nicest things anybody has said about a quilt of mine. I am so happy that it has made you look at solids /solid like fabrics in a new way. The fabric I used was Linen Texture in dark blue, a lighter blue and a very pale grey! Thank you for your lovely words.

Hugs

Caroline

I am impressed! What an amazing use of solid fabrics. Love the colors. The back is also so interesting. Congratulations!
