I had a long email conversation with my pal Julie yesterday, which I will tell you all about in another post, but the impetus of it was that I had decided the diamond quilt I had been working on wasn't BLUE enough. I got home from work last night and went directly into the studio to fix that.
After that I decided to tone down the medium diamonds.
Overall I didn't like it.
I put some of the busier medium diamonds back up on the design wall and I like it better, but I am not done. I still have to make a few more four patch diamonds, and then I'll redistribute those. Hell, I'll probably take everything but the big diamonds down and re do it all.

A good while ago I had a friend who lived near us, and when I asked " What have you been doing today" his reply would invariably be " I moved the furniture in the garden" One or the other shrub, bush or plants dug up, moved, and dug in. I understand that you see your diamonds in the same way, but those blues, I love every one!!
Like where this is going -and happy the exotic birds are still involved. Even the fish seem happier now in this new color-setting.
I really like this one...and I like it in the first pic...might add more one or two yellow/gold little diamonds to the lower left side...but that just my opinion and the one that counts is yours... I know you'll get it to your vision... happy sewing!
Enjoying seeing and hearing about your process.
I like the way you're "alternating" darker and medium blues for the large diamonds. Also the toned down small diamonds. {I should love the bright ones including yellow because I love color but the last two photos look much more cohesive.} What fun working through this. Thanks for sharing the process.
