I'm still having fun with vintage-inspired diamond English Paper Piecing.
Here's how my quilt was looking last week.
I've mentioned the fact that I started out with a few awesome vintage fabrics, decided to add some reproduction fabrics, and then came up with a few of my own fabrics to throw in.
Here's what my quilt top looks like right now. If you compare it with the first picture in this post, you'll see that, in addition to adding three more stars, I also added another row of white-and-cream on one side this week. I'm thinking about making the border that wide all around, and then adding a row of colored diamonds, and then a few more rows of white-and-cream border. We shall see.
Right now, this is 34 inches long and 29 inches wide. After I make the border even all the way around, I'm thinking about adding a row of colored diamonds, and then a few more rows of white-and-cream border. We shall see. I'm also brainstorming some other border options ...
I'll keep you posted ...
That's beautiful! I'm currently working on the opposite design (colored stars, white connectors). I love your color choices and plan to do this pattern next. I really enjoy seeing your progress.

Thanks! This has been a lot of fun! I love seeing pictures of how many "looks" the same design can have, with various color-choices!
