This a one great quilt. I have always wanted to do this pattern but it seems like it would be difficult. Hope you will be able to give us the directions. Thanks for posting the quilt.

Diamonds, I love your quilt. Beautiful job. Would like directions too :lol: :lol:
|
I love it! Nice work.
|
Yes, do share how. If not now sometime in the future I would love to try my hand at that pattern. :lol:
|
Diamonds, I'd love to have pics of your technique if you have the time.

First step is to cut out diamonds... Use the diamond templete and I make it the full size of the templete...
Material need is---one very light one as a medium one dark Easy hint... I cut 4 inch strips.. I place the diamond on stip.. Cut the first part of the "tail" off it so my diamond lines up... I move the diamond down the the strip and use my rotary as I go.. I am sure someone here may have an even better idea but that is they way I do it.. |

The next step is to sew the diamonds... Medium on left and dark on right as placed in the pic below.. I sew those two together first and then I sew the light on....

Sorry I do not have the best camera in the world so the pic is not as good as I hoped... The way I press it goes against all logic... I make it so it is pressed but I fan the seam "out" before pressing the center.. For some reason it is the only way I have found where it does not have a "bunched" up feeling...
