    I really love your color choices; so rich and jewel like.

    Jinny Beyer has been an inspiration of mine also.. the first "quilting book" I ever bought... way back in the 80's or early 90's was her "Los Doces" with fussy cut stars.
    It is lovely and I still love doing it.

    I am glad you like my quilt. I already wrote to Jinny, hopefully I will receive an answer !

    I spent two days on piecing and one day on quilting.
    It's 48"x48".
    All the diamonds and squares were pre-cut.
    I had to make transparent templates to cut the narrow inner borders.
    I usually don't have enough patience to sew diamonds, Y seams or to make templates so that I am very proud of myself that I made it.

    Have a wonderful week.
