Beautiful

 I finished this quilt in May 2015, but haven't been able to write about it because I couldn't figure out how to put the photos from my phone to this blog.
 This is the third tumbling block pattern that I have made.  The fabrics are Japanese kasuri from the KASURI DYEWORKS shop in Berkeley.  I have been holding on to these for a long time and finally decided to cut into these beautiful fabrics.
I think I'll name this quilt 'Beautiful'.  I love the fabrics and the color.  This quilt was given to my sister in law Carol.

 The quilt was machine pieced and machine quilted.  I stitched each diamond a quarter inch away from the seam line.  I think I used an Aurifil 12 wt. grey thread.
The backing fabric is an indigo stenciled blue on white kimono fabric.
