Diamonds on the Rough... and Finished Friday

Sometimes I name my Quilts and it makes my headline so much easier, but other times... I can't think of a name... so I have to wing it!   And this one was winged...

But it is finished!  Pieced and Quilted - and in the stack for my awesome Fellow QOV'ers to bind!!



Finished QOV #7 for 2020

And Lucky me - we got the photo in before the snow storms came back! We have had 3 of the last 4 days bring snow - and cold  - and more snow.... Really wet snow.... I hope to have an awesome pasture this year!!! and Fat Cows!!



This is the back - Debbe made this cool back out of bandannas and I thought it looked good for this quilt.....

So that is my brag for the week - that and my family got fed every day this week.....

What is up with you??

  1. I love your quilt, so pretty! The recipient will be thrilled. This snow, we're supposed to get 4" today! I guess I'll just keep on sewing. Stay safe and healthy!

  2. It's wonderful; the name too~ you're on a roll! I find that sometimes the quilts name themselves. Well done on this one, bravo!

  3. Congrats on a cool finish, front and back. Maybe you should make it a self improvement project for the college kids to cook at least once a week, you'd have more time to stitch.

  4. Great finish. And a great name. I rarely name my quilts because I can never think of a decent name. So I call it by it's pattern name. LOL Sorry to hear about the snow, but please keep it -- I'm ready for sun and warm weather. ☺

  6. You should "wing it" more often, you are a natural. Great name for a fantastic quilt! And the backing of bandannas, Bravo!

  7. Hi Alycia! What a gorgeous quilty finish. Of course, your pieced work looks fab but that backing is really unique and fab as well. I can see this being a reversible quilt very easily. Thanks so much for hosting today! Have a fabulous Friday. ~smile~ Roseanne

  10. What a great finish - it looks great with that red border and yes, perfect backing! As for feeding your family, just let them out to graze. I'm sure the cows won't mind sharing. :)

  13. Sometimes finding a name for a quilt can be hard. I spent hours yesterday trying to come up with a name myself, LOL. Diamonds on the Rough is lovely: congratulations on the finish!

  14. Hopefully all this snow will make for fewer wildfires this summer and phenomenal wildflowers...

    Love your newest QoV! The back is a really great idea, too!

  15. Wonderful finish! I've never thought of using bandanas for backing. Great idea.

  16. What a great quilt and fun name. I rarely name quilts, because I just can't think of a name! You can keep the snow! We have cold weather, but my husband is farming full steam right now. I keep making excuses to not go out and do yardwork, but I think I ran out and this afternoon yardwork it is! What a fun quilt back too.
