My granddaughter, who is 4, suggested that I really needed to make a quilt using the pink floral in the above photo. She was adamant that I use as much pink as possible. Since I'm not a pink type of girl, I did manage to find one other scrap of what reads as a solid pink to use as a frame around the gray diamonds. She was pleased with the look so I'm off the hook......LOL
I made this one a couple of years ago using scraps from my black/white stash. I really love the way the red seems to pop out at you. and the small piano key border pulls everything together.
This was the first Fractured Diamond that I made about 4 years ago. I used earth-tones. It amazes me how different each one looks & yet they are the same.
It's so interesting to see different versions of the same pattern. How fun! Thank your granddaughter for the suggestion. :-)
ReplyDeleteThey all look so appealing, but the one made with black and white strings and red is my favorite. I have a bag of black and white scraps I've been saving for something, so if you find that I've borrowed your idea, please think of it as sincerest flattery!
ReplyDeleteGo for it and watch the magic happen!!
