Diamonds for Lucy
This quilt can be made with 5 - 6" charm squares or 10" blocks. Use fabrics from the annual conference exchange of 10" squares or cut them from theme fabrics, stash fabrics or the scrap bin. Most important is to first divide your blocks into light and dark, with no mediums. Put small squares in pairs, 1 light, facing 1 dark. Draw a diagonal line from corner to corner and stitch on both sides of the line, a 1/4" seam. Cut apart and press. Arrange the squares to form a diamond or whatever pattern you like. There are many design possibilities. Have fun with this quick quilt!
