My reward for sticking to my list and getting everything done was an hour sewing fix. I will add these 12 diamonds to the rest of them when I move all of them to a double design wall after my shower guests leave. It is fun to have 2 different projects that I can work on in little bits of time on busy days.
Color combos are great. I am working on three right at the moment. I cut for one then cut for the other two while fabric is in my hands. Anxious to see the design wall when you get it together. Chris
Your diamonds always look great. I thought I'd try sewing rows of the the same print and then alternate each print or solid and it does not look good at all the shape is lost, I guess I will have to add the borders around each one, oh well so much for a shortcut.

ReplyDeleteNow I know where that pattern comes from. LOL!
ReplyDeleteDo you (by any chance) have any patterns for scrappy, extremely random disappearing nine-patch blocks (see my post on Tuesday for more info!)?
I love how the size of diamonds show off the fabrics so nicely. The sewing was a nice reward.
ReplyDeleteI just love those kinds of rewards! This is going to look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI really like the lights on this batch. They'll look fantastic once you start putting it together.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I think housework would never get done unless I use sewing as a reward for finishing a chore.... *lol*
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to have a couple of projects going on... especially when you get to work with those gorgeous fabrics!
they are looking good - it is always good to have several projects for variety isn't it.

I can hardly wait to see your diamonds all together in a top! Your fabrics from Glorious Color are luscious, especially like the teapots.

ReplyDeleteI really do love how the strips just frame the diamonds!!! Sewing is more rewarding to me than chocolate!!!
ReplyDeleteYour diamonds look great! I will look forward to seeing the end product.
