Rows all sewn.......

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.

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

It has been fun to watch this quilt evolve, and interesting to read your comments about your design process.

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.

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.

Wow, this is gorgeous! It reminds me of a stained glass window. It just glows. Great job!

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!

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.
