Some days are diamonds.

That's how I feel this week. I'm on a roll. I've completed two quilts in two days (trimming and binding only) Feels good! My goal is to complete at least one quilt a month. I easily have that many tops in the queue.

I used Mary Johnson's instructions to construct this one.

Beautiful use of "scraps".... that word hardly seems to fit when the fabrics sparkle like this.

Cam's gram 02-25-2015 03:20 PM

It's beautiful!!!!!! I love the colors and design.

That's a real beauty! Looks like what you see when you look into one of those kalidascopes. (I think I spelled this wrong, but hopefully you know what I mean)

Beautiful quilt. No snow on the ground...where can you be?��

DebraK 02-25-2015 03:36 PM

joym, drought ridden California. That's my what's left of my lawn ;-)

Scraps never looked so gorgeous!

katier825 02-25-2015 03:56 PM

That looks great! I love how the black makes the colors pop!

Oh I love this , my work is making us change uniform colors as well as making us buy them from a certain vendor , anyway , I have been trying to figure out something to do with 12 years worth of royal blue scrubs . THIS IS IT !!!!! ( and of course I have a few boxes of scraps ;) )
thanks for posting your beautiful quilt as well as the link to the directions !

awesome, love the brights so pretty

Jeanne S 02-25-2015 05:46 PM

Love your quilt and thanks for the instruction link! I prefer your design with all black stars that become the background for the bright strip diamonds rather than the colored stars.

Grandma Bonnie 02-25-2015 06:03 PM

Bright and beautiful! You did a great job!

JuneBillie 02-25-2015 06:13 PM

You do have a diamond here. Very pretty and bright just like diamonds. :)

AngeliaNR 02-25-2015 06:55 PM

Really beautiful! I did one like this and really loved it--sadly, it was a gift, so if I want to look at it, I have to go visit it. :) I'm planning another--yellow stars this time, I think. Already have a recipient in mind--I guess I'll have to visit that one, too!

brandeesmom 02-25-2015 07:04 PM

Love this quilt! I've made several string quits and just might make one like yours!

jeanne49 02-25-2015 07:08 PM

Beautiful work.

Absolutely stunning Debra. It is always a pleasure to see what you are working on. Was this PP??

DebraK 02-26-2015 05:05 AM

No, not paper pieced, but it is foundation pieced. There is a safe link to the instruction site in my original post.

jmoore 02-27-2015 03:56 AM

such ambition... a quilt a month? I hope you're retired... I own my own business and dream of the day when I can have more time to quilt. Very pretty scrappy.

Daisy Dew 02-27-2015 05:01 AM

Ye Ha! Good going and I love the diamonds (are a girls best friend)! Have to look that up - isn't it just terrific when you get on a roll like you have.

Pam S 02-27-2015 05:04 AM

I just love black in scrap quilts. Really makes them pop. Thanks for the link. I think I'll try one.
