Beautiful, love the diamonds on one end. Great work.

The rows with the diamonds should lay over the pillows on the bed when it's all done. :o

This quilt is pretty huge--98" x 120". I bought 10 yards of fabric and have less than a yard left. I cut it so there wouldn't be any waste. After I cut and stacked the repeats, I decided how large to cut the wedges so I'd get 3 rows of wedges out of each repeat.

No suggestion for quilting but the quilt itself is gorgeous.

Thanks for explaining this process. I didn't understand how you got that masterpiece out of that piece of fabric. It is absolutely breathtaking.

Great job, Wendy!
I especially love the solid hexes in the top part! I have one hanging on my design wall and had stopped working on it for some unknown reason...maybe I was waiting for inspiration from you!!
As for quilting, here is an older thread started by BuzzinBumble with some really neat ideas for OBW's:

Good luck, and let us see it when you get it quilted!
