I find it so amusing - we ALL know when it's WRONG, and OMG, this geometric so totally was! It looked gold when it was next to the others, but up on the wall it was a sick green.
Nope!
And although there are a lot of really beautiful big prints here, the dark ones just didn't fit.
So I cut some more of the lighter blocks, and this is looking OK. I think the tiny four patch diamonds will have to be bright yellows, oranges, maybe a warm red, and some blues and greens. We'll see.
More work ahead!
You are such an inspiration!! Thank you for sharing your creative processđź’–
ReplyDeleteI thought it was ok with the dark diamonds but when you exchanged them for the light ones, wow what a difference. I love it!
ReplyDeleteThat geometric deserves to star in its very own quilt. What a fabulous fabric.
ReplyDeleteI hope this is the quilt you will be using to write the tutorial for a diamond quilt! I'm ready and I have questions, such as-when I find a big print that might work, how much should I buy? Or another way to put that-how many large diamonds can come from the same fabric? I think I know the answer-it depends on the fabric and the look you want. :)
