Diamonds for Tina Sue
I found a tutorial on The Modern Quilt Guild's blog to make the half rectangle triangle. By placing the dark side of the rectangles together the diamonds came to life.
I really enjoyed sewing the wonky letters together to make her name.
Here's the little sweetie pie!

I'm trying to make a quilt for each of our grandchildren. You can see them here. And now I have one more yet to make for Talya.
It's beautiful, Julia! Great colour choices and I love that Tina Sue's name is pieced in. What a wonderful welcome gift! Tina Sue is adorable!
ReplyDeleteSuch an adorable quilt for that little cutie! You did a beautiful job on this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful quilt, for a precious little girl. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Put side by side, our two quilts are amazing!
ReplyDeleteJulia this quilt turned out spectacular. I'm looking at it from way over here in Kuching!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. Simple pattern, great colors, exquisite design look. She'll treasure this!

So sweet! I love that this is big enough for her to grow into, so it'll be good to go for years. And -wow- Thanks for sharing the tutorial for the HRTs!
ReplyDeleteLove your quilt!!! Tina Sue is such a cutie! BTW...although now in Georgia, I was born and raised in Mississippi ;-) I sure miss living on the coast!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet! I did a run of blue and yellow quilts, years ago, and they are still some of my most cheerful! I've never pieced words into one, though! This is great!
ReplyDeleteThat quilt just dances between the diamonds and the zig zag. Tina sure is lucky.
