It's coming together, and it's getting exciting!

These are the patterns that are making the audition for the quilting... I'm going to hand-quilt this... my first quilt... because I don't want to ruin it by "practicing" machine quilting. I've done hand stitching before, and this is what my grandmother does, so I know it will look nice. It will take longer for sure, but I won't have to worry about putting a hole in my quilt and wasting all the effort up to this point! I expecially like the daisy... will likely use that somehow. *smile*

All sewed together... with blue borders...

The corners on the triangles were such a challenge. They are by no means perfect, but it was my first try, so I'm not too down about it. I DO love the overall effect of the diamond patterns.
So excited to get this finished and be able to snuggle under it!!
