The colors of the hand dyed fabrics are bold, vibrant and gorgeous.  It wasn’t until I looked at the quilt through the camera that I saw the diamond pattern emerge.   What a huge undertaking to cut and place all the two and half inch squares.  Using a bright variegated thread, I quilted stars and swirls.  I love how the thread stands out on the purple blue backing.
