Lancaster Diamonds


Back to Lancaster Diamonds today.  I pieced another assortment of diamond blocks, and it's official:  I've reached the limit of my attention span for this project.  

The block colors are kind of saying 'sunflower' to me, so I spread them out onto an offhand piece of yellow yardage, and it looks pretty good.  I'll probably head toward yellow for sashing and try either green or red calico for the small diamond cornerstones.  

In other news, everyone at Dave's house has come down with Covid.  (Again.  They all had it last January and it took a while for all of them to get past it.)   Since I am dangerously immune-compromised due to the meds I'm taking, we won't be seeing them/babysitting till they all test negative  :(

I'm so sorry your family is down with covid - and the second time too, that's even worse. I hope they have mild cases and recover quickly.
Seeing the yellow in your quilt reminded me of one my paternal grandmother made that was floral but had a yellow background like yours. Unfortunately all her quilts (and there were many) were lost in a house fire.
