    The film says "Diamonds are Forever" so it doesn't matter how long it takes to achieve something so beautiful.

    Thanks for your kind words. I had another row of stars which I bound and she says she will use it as a table runner or as a pad on bench in her entryway. It is a treat to have it reversible; some of the stars almost are prettier on the back.

    Isn't it wonderful to finally finish a project and then you wonder why it took so long in the first place!

    What a lot of work you did with individual diamonds - could you have imagined that now we just sew strips and cut angles? Congratulations on finishing this lovely quilt the "hard" way!
