I had a goal to finish sewing the rows on this diamond quilt by midnight Saturday and I made it with 45 minutes to spare. I haven't made any decision on borders yet and probably will finish the other 2 tops before I do make a decision.
Lovely quilt Wanda. I think a border of the same or similar color fabric to your triangles might be interesting. I would give an effect of floating diamonds.
It has been fun to watch this quilt evolve, and interesting to read your comments about your design process. sally in st. paul (where I get the absolute last of this year's sweet corn today. I will cry in my butter as I eat it).
Once again, another beautiful quilt. All these years I've been using such dark colors, then I see your beautiful bright colorful quilts. Thanks for sharing. cindy
It is really beautiful! I like the fabric you used in the side pieces...looks perfect! You always seem to have such a eye for color! Quilting by the River
I rarely do anything with much border, to speak of, and I do like this without borders. What size are you at now? I can definitely see where adding borders will make it larger must faster than more triangles!

Yowser! Great quilt. Not sure of size but it could stand alone w/o borders as far as I'm concerned.

That is just beautiful! It makes me want to create a diamond quilt, but no time right now to add anything on my "to do list" --- definitely one day!
It is beautiful, Wanda, truly beautiful. I'll be interested to see what you use for borders after it's "cooked" for a while in your mind.
You are one busy lady. I love this quilt. You have wonderful fabric choices. Hope you had a good day.

This may be my favorite of all so far!!!!
Pretty, pretty, pretty!

Wow! Fantastic quilt, Wanda!
Phenomenal ... truly gorgeous! Congrats on reaching this stage ...
Wow, this is gorgeous! It reminds me of a stained glass window. It just glows. Great job!

sewfrench.com, it is about 60 x 79 right now
I didn't think this diamond piece could even look better but WOW this one is dynamite ~ Can hardly wait to see what you add for the border.
