The frames almost match

I made a handmade quilting crossing the points. NEVER DO IT, you have to pass at leas 4 fabrics and it is very heavy...

I made one of the baby block quilts a very long time ago. I ran across the pattern and was wanting to make one. You have inspired me to start one. I love both of your quilts, nice job.

It is great for an on-the-go hand sewing project. And when you less expect, you have finished

Love both of these, but the colors in the tumbling blocks quilt sing to me. I'm very much afraid of tackling diamonds. Bringing those points together is such a headache that I simply avoid them. Triangles are more than difficult enough for me.

Don't be afraid, you just mark where the 1/4 inch lines cross, you pin them and sew until those points, and it is done, that's all its a great project for on-the-go hand sewing and for scraps
