Here’s another cute little all over design… brought to you by my doodles on the top.  The quilt top is Easy Diamond Delight from our new book What a Load of Scraps!  Everyone always asks me how to make a diamond quilt from our 60˚ template (or your 60˚ ruler).  We have a beautiful quilt made with our 45˚ Diamond template.  So here is our top.

As you can see, all the blocks are made from scraps using our All Scrapped Out! method, including the background.  I tried several different doodles on top of the quilt to see what would enhance the spirit of the quilt but not be too overwhelming… a nice simple design.

I tried out several different designs on the top before choosing to go with something loos and fun like this.  I kept drawing until I got a nice continuous quilting design and then started on the quilt top.

Here is the finished project after quilting.  A more free motion version went into the border of the quilt to finish it out.  Such a cute, fun way of finishing up another top.

What is your latest quilting masterpiece?
