Diamonds Jubilee Bargello Quilt
 

My son is getting married this summer and I made a quilt for the happy couple. I asked them for input as to the pattern and material, since it will be on their bed. My son remembered this pattern from a quilt I had helped assemble several years ago, and my DIL-to-be went shopping with me and chose the fabrics. I was so glad she went along because she chose from a color family I haven't worked with before and I didn't have the concept like she did. However, she chose beautifully and the finished quilt is quite pretty and looks just like Rachel, according to her mama. I was stymied a bit when I went to quilt it. I finally decided to follow the darker materials like a path and I quilted feathers wherever there was a dark spot. Some times the feathers went somewhere, sometimes they were like a medallion. In between I chose the cheater's way out and used stippling to cover the remaining ground. The border motifs were new ones for me and I especially enjoyed the larger flower motif that covered the largest border quite nicely. Thanks for looking!

Beautiful and looks perfect for your room.

This quilt looks so beautiful. The colors want invite you to cuddle close and out of the cold. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful quilt....and quilting!

Lovely quilt and quilting!

That's so pretty, Julia, and I love that colorway.

You did a beautiful job, as did your DIL with the colour choices.

That is so well done. I sure hope your DIL decides to be a quilter. She has excellent color sense. Your quilting is very good. It finished out the quilt perfectly.

simply beautiful! I love the colors!
