I love the Diamond Dust pattern, but I had such a difficult time squaring up the rectangles. Thanks for the encouragement, Fran! Maybe I need to try it again. The white with the Cat-i-tude paisleys is so pretty!
I have that book, but would never really consider making it...until now! I don't know if it is the fabric or just seeing it made up, but I love it. I have several books, and kits, but I am afraid of making mistakes when I cut so I've never made one. I know, right???
Been wanting to make Christmas Forest but am afraid the half rectangle might be a bit challenging. Thanks so much for your instruction. I’m going to attempt this!!!
For the butterfly glamour I was thinking it would be nice to remove the gold fabric all together and use just black and butterfly fabric. I just might try that.
Like the pattern always nice to see how to make the blocks but when you said slant quarter stitch I don’t like patterns that call for slant hard for me to remember I do slant
I understand Mary. There are a few tools that can help keep a scant quarter inch. If they are not exactly a scant quarter inch that is fine, the important thing is that it is consistent throughout the quilt top.
You will not be able to make both the "A" and "C" half rectangles from the same fabric. You would need 2 yards of 2 of the fabrics fabric #2 and the fabric #1 (or #3 if that is your preference for the diamonds). - Fran
A new challenge. ✨️ 🩷🎵
I really like this. I prefer quilts that are symmetrical.
❤ Retro Patio!!!
One of the prettiest quilts I've seen. Carolyn
I am getting ready to make this quilt and this tutorial was VERY helpful! Thank you!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful 🥰
Great colour combination.
Thank you!
I love the black and gold kit and the Christmas tree kit. Okay, I like all the kits. 🤗
It's always hard to choose 😅
This does look fun!
Some great choices there Fran. 🩷tyfs
A beautiful design! Thank you
Thank you, looks like some more fun is going to happen at my house!
🎉🎉
Love the trees quilt
Metallic fabrics are so stunning!
I love the colors in the diamond dust quilt!
I'm going to try it. Thank you Fran and Fabric Café
Love the fabrics and patterns ❤
Love the star in the center of the Diamond Dust pattern ❤
Thanks!! Fun and brand new to me.❤
Thank you for the easy instructions. Beautiful design on all the quilts.
Thank you Karin! Glad to help!
You make it look sew easy 😊
Thank you for showing how to do this. I have that book and have wanted to make it but was too worried about difficulty now I'm going to try it
Same here.
You can do it Rachel!
You can do it, too, Mary! 💛
I ve made the Diamond Dust pattern and have to say it was a challenge. My long arm quilter used rectangles all over the top. Backing is black.

They can be difficult, and with our method the points may not always match perfectly every time - but once it is finished you won't be able to notice!
In the butterfly glamour, is there a white that matches the black dot fabric by chance? That fabric is so cute with the butterflies and roses.
You can check out what we have in our Fabric by the Yard. You might find something that matches well and can swap it out when making the quilt 😊

I'm sure that would also be stunning! 🤩

For the diamond dust, is there enough fabric to have both the A & C make diamonds - I'm trying to picture them as a "plaid - checkerboard" on peach...

Сама ничего не делаешь, одни разговоры. Было бы быстрее, если бы сама прошила , отрезала, намного понятнее
