Edith’s Southern Cross

Edith Long

I was inspired by Kaffe Fassett & some other diamond quilts I saw on the internet. My husband created my ruler so I could easily fussy cut my diamonds, I originally was making this for my sister because of the Australian fabrics but then she told me she’s not wild about blue and green! It is the first quilt I designed myself. My original idea did not have the red diamond but it was dull. I think the red ended up really making it. This is my 5th quilt.
