Pluggin' Away

I've been slowly but surely pluggin' away on Sharon's Mandalay HSR quilt.  It's going to be Queen size, and I think it's going to be beautiful.

First I built some diamonds from Half Square Rectangles.

Then I joined the diamonds into pairs.  This photo shows four pairs of diamonds laid out.

Along the way, there was much truing-up.

This was taken a couple of days ago, now the stack is over 5 inches tall.

May your bobbins always be full,
