Diamond Dust blocks
2 Attachment(s)
I had posted a pinterest link to this quilt under In Search OF triangles quilt.
this one is from a book on Geometric quilts. Diamond Dust. I would pick diamonds and in batiks yet. I am doing this one for my friends dtr and it is for her grown son. here are some blocks on my cutting table. it will be 3 across and 8 down. |
Great job and gorgeous batiks!
|
That is going to be beautiful. Love your batik fabrics and love the quilt design
|
Love batiks & diamonds. Can't wait to see the finished quilt. It's going to be lovely.
|
Very nice!
|
Really like this, especially the fabrics your picked. Is this a strip piecing technique? Looks almost like foundation piecing on a rectangle with 2.5" strips, much like the technique used for string quilts. would be a great project using a couple of jelly rolls.

Very soothing. K. Fasssett does a diamond one but it has strong color and various sizes of strips.
|
yes, four strips sewn and rectangle template laid on them at an angle. just match lines (I marked on my template). the pattern shows all done in same fabrics. i had several to use for this, no large cuts. somewhere i have an acrylic template I bought to do something similar. there is a bit of waste with this method .
|
A great start. It will be beautiful.
|
whew. all 24 done. I sent her a photo of them laid out on the floor. but i need more fabric for a border. we are to talk by phone tomorrow. texting can only go so far.
