Diamond Detour in Batiks

We love batiks. In fact, we have quite a large stash collection of them! So, we decided to make a version of the Diamond Detour in our favorite batik color combination. We pulled lime, purple, blue and turquoise printed batiks for the pieced diamonds and a gorgeous beige bubble print for the background.

Adding Prints to the Diamond Detour

The cover quilt of the Diamond Detour is all about solids, so today we are going to focus on adding prints to the quilt. The Diamond Detour is a great way to show off your favorite prints. We have two examples today that are completely different! One features different prints in the pieced diamonds and the other features one busy print as the background.

Show off your favorite prints, create a cascade of color or feature a single print as the background.

Collaboration with Robert Kaufman

Not too long ago, Nichole from Robert Kaufman Fabrics asked me if I was interested in mocking up some of our quilt patterns in their fabrics. The answer was an astounding yes! So far we have mocked up our Euclid Avenue and Shivaun Place quilt patterns. We love how these turned out, so we thought we should share them!

Mulholland Drive in Greens, Teals and Blues

A few days before we left for Quilt Market in Pittsburgh, we decided to make another version of our Mulholland Drive quilt pattern. We went in a completely opposite direction of the cover quilt and started pulling lime, teal, aqua and blue fabrics and put them on a stark white background.

Elsie Stone's Diamond Alley Quilt

Elsie Stone sent us pictures of her gorgeous Diamond Alley quilt and we had to share them! She used assorted red fabrics for the diamonds, ranging from light pink to dark maroon, and a crisp white for the background. She made the Diamond Alley quilt pattern larger by adding 2 more vertical rows, making a total of 39 diamonds, and large white borders that float the diamonds.
