Good Morning Quilters!
The Collection for a Cause - Community quilt is now sewn together into a quilt top. Despite all my mistakes, I am happy to have it ready to be quilted. It turned out to be 78” by 80”, almost square. If I had cut the diamonds correctly, the kit should have resulted in a quilt that would be 69” by 83”. So I am happy with it, in spite of all the twists and turns, If you want to know more, you could search my blog for previous posts in January, 2025.
Here is the quilt top on the design wall:
I am also making progress of sewing the borders on the Cousin’s Walk bird quilt. I decided to sew the borders onto the quilt before I finish the final flowers at the end of the borders. Here is my first mitered corner:

The diamonds quilt looks very nice, will it be quilted in time to bring along to the April retreat? You are making great progress with the Cousins walk quilt. Hopefully I'll see it when you all display your progress on the quilts in the hallway. Happy stitching!
The Collection for the Cause quilt turned out beautifully! You definitely salvaged that project and turned it into a beautiful quilt. Happy stitching this week.
the community quilt is very nice...the fabrics are just beautiful
Wow - no one will ever know your diamond quilt isn't made exactly as planned. It's gorgeous!
Congratulations for sticking with the diamonds quilt. You should be proud of yourself for sticking with it and coming up with a unique quilt!
Oh, those diamonds are beautiful!
Hi Judy, your diamond quilt turned out beautifully! I would have mitered the corners before stitching the appliqué also...that is if I did mitered corners and appliqué! It's looking so lovely. Have a great weekend.
