Diamond Delight is the name of the quilt designed by Carol Doak for the cruise on which she taught this spring. It was originally designed with 6″ blocks, but I shrank mine down to 2″. I began the paper piecing of the quilt during the cruise, and then I finished it at home.
My next challenge was to decide on what quilting motif I wanted to use, but I eventually decided to try out some curved crosshatching, using a ruler from Accents in Design. This ruler is made for use on domestic machines, and it really works well! I used it with my Bernina, and I’m quite happy with the results — I suspect I’ll be investing in more of their rulers soon.
