Night Diamonds
 

I began piecing this quilt in 2006 and finished quilting it on my domestic machine this past winter. I didn't really like it after all these years and I only saw my quilting mistakes! I pulled it out again and it was striking to me. I decided to share on the board with you all. The sun was too bright outside. The color is purple, not blue. I remember I used a black batting. The pattern was from a magazine and I don't remember which one! Hope you enjoy seeing my quilt. It is a large one- approx. 90 by 110.

Beautiful! love the brightness and the variety of fabrics used! How long did it take to accumulate all those fabrics? There's a lot of work there .... congratulations on completing it.

The colors glow! I'm glad you finished it!

That is gorgeous - so glad you finished it.

Gorgeous quilt! You should be very proud of this beauty!

Amazing how much a black background makes colors sing. Beautiful.

Yes, there was a lot of work on this quilt. I don't remember where all the prints came from, my Mom contributed some and I picked them up at lots of stores. I completed the piecing 6 or 7 years ago and have very little of those fabrics around anymore!

very nice love all the colour

Your quilt is beautiful and you should be very proud of it! I love the colors!

I'm always envious of people who have an eye for color and can tell the difference between mediums and darks, because I certainly can't. Your quilt is lovely, your fabric placement is just perfect and I'm so glad you posted it so that I can admire.
