Pink Diamonds!! and ! Finished ( or not) Friday!

Happy Friday!!! The wind has been howling here - and I feel like it just Blew me through the week!! Its supposed to be less windy today and I am all for it!!

I did get lucky and get a finish!!!

It is my PINK DIAMONDS!!!








I might have gone a little Photo happy - but the sun was shining, the dogs were behaving, the world was all right for the moment... so I snapped away!!!

My Little Flamingo Quilt clips are actually Beach chair clips - the work so nice over the Fencing: you can find them here :

Towel Clips... 

I always like to use them in the winter because it makes me think I am on a beach - warm and maybe drinking an appropriate Adult beverage - Maybe even reading a book!!!

This was my January Rainbow scrap Challenge Quilt - and I was pretty excited I got it quilt - and even got the striped binding on it!!! It is now on my quilt rack with another Pink one, and my Moms is on the couch. I think we are looking pretty Valentiney around here now!!!

Pink Diamonds is so pretty! Good job and I'm glad the sun is shining for you, happy stitching!

Cathy said...

Oh so many pink scraps! I don't mind a lot of photos because I guess I'm a "fabric-snooper" - I like to look at all the fabrics folks use in their quilts. Oh, and then with yours I get to admire some fab quilting too! We don't have Netflix and rarely watch Prime. We mostly watch shows on Acorn and Britbox.

I do love your Pink Diamonds creation and especially the fancy panto you used. What fun. Wish I could do that.

Meredith said...

This looks so pretty! Impressive to finish so fast; that binding is perfect!

Linda said...

It turned out so pretty! I'm bookmarking it and also have your Patriotic Plaids post and photo saved. I just love this pattern and am determined to get it made this year!

Love all the shades of pinks here. Another beauty, Alycia!

Sara said...

Oh yes - that turned out beautifully. I've been making more red/white/blue Buckeye Beauty blocks each day, and will eventually have enough for a QOV.

Pink Diamonds is a pretty finish!!! Wahoo! Impressive that you have it finished already!!! Those towel clips accessorize Pink Diamonds perfectly! I'm piecing away on making the blocks for Bonnie Hunter's Old Village mystery. . .

A jewel of a quilt!

Those flamingo clips are hoot. Thanks for sharing what they are. I'm thinking they would make a great gift for my family of beach goers. Love the pantograph you chose for Pink Diamonds. Feels a bit like those windy days you were talking about.

What a fun pink quilt. Glad the dogs were behaving. Windy here too! Makes the cold feel colder. We have been watching Season 2 of The Night Agent on Netflix. You need to watch Season One first to get the background. About a secret division of the FBI!

Chantal said...

Congrats on getting another one finish and it's a beauty to boot. Love the photo of the back. The quilting is showing so well in that picture. Awesome! ;^)

Pink Diamonds is a beauty and I love the quilting design you've gone with.

Kate said...

Definitely very pretty in pink! The quilting is very pretty too.

Pretty pink diamonds, and lovely swirling quilting! I always smile to see those flamingo towel clips. Wouldn't it be great to be on a beach right now? Have a good week!

Pink Diamonds looks fabulous! What a great finish!

What a gorgeous quilt Alycia. Those pinks really play well together!
