Indigo Diamonds Quilt
Completed:  November 2015
Inspiration:  “Autumn Jewels” quilt by Krista Fleckenstein of Spotted Stones Studio
Quilt Size: 67 x 80” (71 x 84” before shrinking)
Block Size: 4” finished
Fabric: Low Country Indigo by Nancy Gere for Windham Fabrics, among others.  Background - Bear Essentials 2 by P&B Textiles (ESS2 566 S, light grey).  Backing - Katagmi Shibori by Allentown Art Museum for Red Rooster Fabrics.
Technique: Cut triangles with Sizzix die cutter.  Used quilt-as-you-go method to assemble sections:  created 4 x 4 pieced block units; glue basted units onto batting squares and straight-line quilted; attached backing fabric using stitch-in-the-ditch technique.  Hand stitched binding.
Tutorial:  Used angled pinning method for matching points described by Debby Maddy in her “Easy Piecing, Amazing Design” Craftsy class.
Notes:  This is a wedding gift for our daughter and her fiancé who were engaged during the summer. Their dog approves of the quilt!
CARE - 100% cotton fabric; machine wash and tumble dry. All Thread Projects quilts are pre-washed in cold water and pre-shrunk in a hot dryer before gifting.
